Perrault's tale of a mistreated young woman who takes her own destiny in hand, Cinderella is beloved by children all over. Anna Griot transplants this universal situation to an enchanted New York. The 17th-century author and the 21st-century artist prove a perfect match when it comes to giving readers young and merely young-at-heart a dusted-off, sparkling new version of the classic heroine who won't be left out or left behind, more captivating than she is captive.
