Cinderella Liberator by Rebecca Solnit Pdf

“What would the world look like if girls grew up reading fairytales made from the magic they carry inside themselves? Breathtakingly beautiful, is what.” —Lidia Yuknavich, national bestselling author In her debut children’s book, Rebecca Solnit reimagines a classic fairytale with a fresh, feminist Cinderella and new plot twists that will inspire young readers to change the world, featuring gorgeous silhouettes from Arthur Rackham on each page. In this modern twist on the classic story, Cinderella, who would rather just be Ella, meets her fairy godmother, goes to a ball, and makes friends with a prince. But that is where the familiar story ends. Instead of waiting to be rescued, Cinderella learns that she can save herself and those around her by being true to herself and standing up for what she believes. “Being a princess is absolutely fine if that’s what you choose. It’s having those choices taken away from you that make for big problems. Cinderella in Solnit’s book is given that choice. She’s allowed to say what her dreams are, and then she goes out and attains them. And they’re not huge ridiculous dreams but small, happy, manageable ones. Ultimately, that’s the gift Ms. Solnit is giving kids with this book.” —School Library Journal “This is a reminder of hope and possibility, of kindness and compassion, and—perhaps most salient—imagination and liberty. Through the imaginations of our childhoods, can we find our true selves liberated in adulthood?” —Chelsea Handler “This is, hands down, a wonderful book—one that even the jaded reader will clasp upon completion with a contented sigh.” —The New York Times

Fashion in the Fairy Tale Tradition by Rebecca-Anne C. Do Rozario Pdf

This book is a journey through the fairy-tale wardrobe, explaining how the mercurial nature of fashion has shaped and transformed the Western fairy-tale tradition. Many of fairy tale’s most iconic images are items of dress: the glass slippers, the red capes, the gowns shining like the sun, and the red shoes. The material cultures from which these items have been conjured reveal the histories of patronage, political intrigue, class privilege, and sexual politics behind the most famous fairy tales. The book not only reveals the sartorial truths behind Cinderella’s lost slippers, but reveals the networks of female power woven into fairy tale itself.

Cinderella by Charles Perrault Pdf

A wealthy man remarried after his wife passed away. His second wife and her two daughters were however so mean, selfish and greedy that they made the man’s daughter clean and work all day long. The poor girl on the other side was kindhearted and gentle. One day the prince invited all the young ladies in the land to a ball. He was going to choose his future wife. The two step-sisters and the rude step-mother prepared their gowns. Cinderella was however not allowed to go with them. But then her good fairy godmother helped her and sent her to the ball dressed in a magically beautiful dress and glass slippers. Will the prince choose her before all the others and what will happen when he finds out that Cinderella is an ordinary girl who sleeps near a fireplace? Find out in "Cinderella".
