Translated by Anthea Bell.
Illustrated by
Loek Koopmans.
Illustrations featuring a mix of styles in both clothing and architecture set the story in an imaginary yet vaguely familiar landscape, lit by a dreamlike haze. The smoothly told story in this Swiss import contains the familiar details and a happy ending in which Cinderella forgives her stepfamily.
