Beschreibung

"Cinderella; Or, The Little Glass Slipper, and Other Stories" is a captivating anthology that intertwines the timeless tale of Cinderella with other enchanting narratives that delve into themes of transformation, virtue, and social aspiration. Rich in both moral undertones and fantastical elements, the collection celebrates the triumph of goodness and perseverance against adversity. The prose flows gracefully, employing a lyricism that mirrors the oral storytelling traditions from which many of these tales have emerged, positioning them within the larger context of folklore and fairy tales that have shaped cultural imaginations across generations. The identity of the author remains shrouded in anonymity, a deliberate choice that underscores the collective nature of folklore, which often transcends the individual and belongs to the community at large. This mysterious authorship evokes a sense of universality, inviting readers to engage with the concepts of class, beauty, and destiny as they were understood in various historical contexts. Such narratives likely emerged from the oral tradition, shaped by the societal norms and values that influenced the lives of many. This anthology is highly recommended for those seeking not only entertainment but also a deeper understanding of the moral lessons embedded within these stories. Readers will find in this compilation a reflection of their own dreams and struggles, reaffirming the belief that kindness and virtue can lead to transformative outcomes. Immerse yourself in these timeless tales and rediscover the magic woven through generations.

Do you like epic quests of amazing counting?

Do you dislike global pandemics, being stuck at home, and the number 7?

Then I have a story for you. It's about how I counted to a million during lockdown - with help from Mum and Dad, friends and neighbours, and Grandad. And some birds. And a bucket of marbles. And an awesome TV reporter.

Sometimes, just keeping on going makes you a hero.

Eight-year-old Max is counting to a million. Normally, school or having anything interesting to do would get in the way, but school is shut and everyone has to stay home because the UK is in its first lockdown. Max's dad works at the hospital and counting helps Max with missing him, but as the pandemic progresses and Max's grandad journeys through his own battle with the virus, what starts as a distraction turns into record-breaking effort that brings Max's community together.

Suitable for readers aged 7 up, this funny, poignant, uplifting story reflects the experiences shared by so many during the Covid pandemic and celebrates how ordinary people accomplish epic things.
