"If you linger, then at the final stroke of the clock your carriage will turn back into a pumpkin, the coachman into a rat, the horses into mice, the footmen into lizards, and your magnificent attire will turn back into your old, modest dress,"—this was the final injunction of the fairy godmother, who had used her magic wand to turn a pumpkin into a carriage, and a cinder girl into a stunning beauty, who would now set off for the ball, to meet the prince!..
Generation after generation, this reverie, this dream continues to stir and enchant readers (and especially female readers of all ages). After all, "Cinderella" is an eternally beloved fairy tale that never grows old.
With the exquisite touch of her brush, Kinuko Craft has added new warmth and depth to the image of Cinderella, who—though cruelly mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters—still managed to win the heart of a kind prince.
For everyone who dreams of a magical fairy godmother, generous gifts, and a happy life, this is the fantasy for you.
