What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Ralph said, “Rain tomorrow.” Burt said, “Barley needs it. You’re covered with cinders, Ellis.” Ralph thought that was funny. “That’s funny.” He laughed. “That’s what we should call him– Cinderellis.” Burt guffawed.In this unusual spin on an old favorite, Cinderlla is a boy! He’s Cinderellis, and he has two unfriendly brothers and no fairy godmother to help him out. Luckily, he does have magical powders, and he intends to use them to win the hand of his Princess Charming– that is, Marigold. The only problem is– Marigold thinks Cinderellis is a monster!Gail Carson Levine is the author of Ella Enchanted, a spirited retelling of the “real” Cinderella fairy tale and a 1998 Newberry Honor Book. In this fourth of her Princess Tales, Levine brings new life and new fun into a little-known tale and proves that determination, imagination, and kindness can carry the day.
