Galia Zinko

A new, completely unexpected perspective on the world's most famous fairy tale. Cinderella lives in a magnificent house, yet she must sleep in the ashes. Hence her name, which means nothing more than "Ash Girl." Since her father remarried, Cinderella is little more than the servant of her wicked stepmother and her cruel stepsisters. All the dirty work is left to her: she has to clean the boilers, wash the stairs, and tidy the whole house. Oh, how hard it is for the poor girl! One night, everyone except Cinderella is allowed to attend a ball at the king's palace. Only a miracle and a good fairy can help the dear girl transform into a princess. Long before the Brothers Grimm, the French fairy tale collector and writer Charles Perrault wrote the story of Cinderella. Thanks to Walt Disney's animated film, many know this version as "Cinderella." In this beautifully illustrated fairy tale book, the magical story of Cinderella is exquisitely portrayed by Galia Zinko. "Cinderella" is not just a magical tale but also a truly fascinating book about fashion and style. Illustrated with French charm by the talented and internationally awarded Ukrainian artist Galia Zinko. With this edition, both children and adults will continually return to this beloved fairy tale and immerse themselves in the unique atmosphere of "Cinderella.".
