Though her future was still uncertain, she was on a new and curious path. A path her relatives had been walking for generations. Her story was now entwined with that of Kopciuszek. A servant to the queen.

Nadzia tucked the cleaning rag into her apron in exchange for her feather duster. She held it out like it was a dance partner and placed her other hand against her chest in mock modesty.

1. I‘ve never really tried them, but I‘m up for experimenting with more in the future!
2. I‘ve always loved Sleeping Beauty and Thumbelina - the pretty illustrations and kindess everyone had toward strangers always appealed to me.
3. I just read Cinderella‘s Dress yesterday and liked it - If anybody has any recommendations, feel free to share!

This was a cute, fun read about Cinderella‘s ancestors and preserving fairy tale heirlooms. There was some suspense, a sweet teenage romance, and a likable narrator. Helped today feel much lighter and brought more than a few smiles to my face today, so I‘m glad I read it. #MagicalMay #fairytales #Retellings

What if fairy tales were real? What if Cinderella really existed and her famous dresses had to be hidden and kept out of the hands of the evil stepsisters? And what if they eventually found their way from Poland to NYC in the 1940s? Slayton‘s writing is vivid and her plot makes perfect sense. This is a wholesome story about true love, belief, and family. There are three more books in the series. 👗👗👗👗👗

This book has reawakened my royal fever. Seriously we just had a charity book sale and I got two royal biographies. I love the idea that Cinderella was based on a real royal family. The writing style made this so easy to read. I would love it if this became a series.

I love how this combined with the tale of Cinderella. I also love how it combines with the history of WWII. This was an interesting read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 👗 #CinderellasDress #ShonnaSlayton #Cinderella #book #books #bookshelf #bookshelves #bookdesign #bookfeatures #bookfeature #bookgeek #bookhoarder #bookhaul #bookholic #bookjunkie #bookkeeper #booklove #booklover #booklovers #bookcollection #bookcovers #bookcover #bookvibe #bookvibes #bookbinding #nerdy

As I like most anything dealing with Cinderella I was fairly confident I would like this, I was right. An easy fun retelling of the Cinderella story! How much more #Cinderella can this shot get?
