Happy ever after? It should be sorted out. Cleo’s friend, Mark offers her the chance of a Fairytale Fiasco: Cinderella. Thereafter, Cleo arrives in Cinderella’s locked kitchen to see how she’s put upon by her stepsisters, Denise and Louise alongside Madame Lime, her stepmother. However, Cleo’s not arrived empty-handed. It seems she has slime. What’s more, she has recipes for slime that intrigue Cinderella and then her stepsisters. However, what about Madame Lime? Will she be impressed, or might she a ball to attend with her daughters, and a list of chores Cinderella’s left undone? Might Cleo have further suggestions? A Fairy Godmother, for example? A different form of transport to the party? Then again, even better dancing clothes, alongside great music? Evgenia Golubeva, alognside Myles McLeod, co-writer of the Knight Sir Louis series, offers such an enjoyable twist on a traditional tale! The illustrations are vibrant and accessible, while the story is ideal for readers with less experience of chapter books. Then again, this adaptation is so clever! We love Fairytale Fiasco: Cinderella.
