Summary

A picture book to help lift children's spirits and cope with changes resulting from social distancing and staying home during a time of quarantine. Friends living apart learn in new ways, stay connected and hopeful, grow in strength and resiliency, and look forward to being together again with friends, cousins, and grandparents. It simply and concisely focuses on dealing with difficult emotions resulting from separation and from missing loved ones, and from what kids may perceive as unknown and scary times. Indirectly about COVID 19, the story and illustrations normalize new ways like staying home, connecting with friends and family remotely, hand washing, wearing masks and gloves, homeschooling, and sharing and caring. It validates kids' feelings and experiences and encourages deep heart connection and positive thinking. And it inspires kids to feel secure and trust that our world will heal and that soon most of us will be well, happy, at peace, and together again.

    "Wholly original and captivating." - Brigid Kemmerer, New York Times bestselling author of A Curse So Dark and Lonely 
 
Girls team up to overthrow the kingdom in this unique and powerful retelling of Cinderella from a stunning new voice that's perfect for fans of Dhonielle Clayton and Melissa Albert. 
 
  It's 200 years after Cinderella found her prince, but the fairy tale is over. Teen girls are now required to appear at the Annual Ball, where the men of the kingdom select wives based on a girl's display of finery. If a suitable match is not found, the girls not chosen are never heard from again.  
  
 Sixteen-year-old Sophia would much rather marry Erin, her childhood best friend, than parade in front of suitors. At the ball, Sophia makes the desperate decision to flee, and finds herself hiding in Cinderella's mausoleum. There, she meets Constance, the last known descendant of Cinderella and her step sisters. Together they vow to bring down the king once and for all--and in the process, they learn that there's more to Cinderella's story than they ever knew . . . 
 
This fresh take on a classic story will make readers question the tales they've been told, and root for girls to break down the constructs of the world around them.
