(3) K-3 Regency-style clothing and fluid figures contribute verve to Knight's text. The story is among the sweeter versions (the father is conveniently lost at sea and therefore not complicit), but the stepfamily is suitably malevolent. Unexpected details from nature and interior design invite attention, and the blue motif for the godmother and the royal ball resonates nicely.
