Cenicienta

Anthea Bell's adaptation feels fresh yet classic. I wonder what motivated her choices in shaping this familiar story for modern children.

I loved the lighthearted tone, but I’m curious if the darker or more traditional versions resonate more with other readers or if this style feels more accessible.

While I haven't seen the images, I imagine they play a big role in bringing Cinderella's world to life for young readers. Do illustrations deepen the magic or distract from the story?
