Christmas meets Cinderella in this newly published funny, fractured fairy tale by bestselling author Suzy Senior.
Oh no! It’s a chilly, frosty Christmas Eve and Santa’s hurt his back. He cannot fly the sleigh or even lift his sack! Is Christmas ruined? Not if Cinderella has anything to do with it! Leaving her mean step-sisters behind, she offers to give Santa a hand, and – along the way – travels the world. But Santa has one more gift in his sleigh. Could it be the chance for Cinderella to write her own happily-ever-after?
Packed with a rollicking rhyme and hilarious illustrations from Lucy Semple this fabulous retelling of a classic fairy tale challenges stereotypes and shows children that they don’t have to follow what others do and to be their own person. We fell in love with the moment, when we received the sample copy back in the Summer.
This book is perfect for children of all ages. Younger children will be enchanted by the captivating illustrations and storyline, while older children will appreciate the deeper meaning hidden within the pages.
This brand new picture book will be one that we get out every Christmas and because every copy of the author is signed, it makes them that little bit more special!
