I guess you think you know this story. You don't. The real one's much more gory. Welcome to a deliciously devilish tale where princes are far from charming, sisters weave dastardly plots, and (our hero) Cinderella's happy-ever-after isn't exactly what you'd expect. Roald Dahl is renowned the world over for his fabulous storytelling and this edition of his cautionary tale will delight new readers. With brand-new and wickedly funny illustrations, this splendiferous rhyming picture book is perfect for chiddlers who like their fairy tales with a splash of daring and danger! This picture book edition of Cinderella is a version of the original text by Roald Dahl first published in Revolting Rhymes in 1982, and as such the content reflects the attitudes and culture of the time. Also available in this newly illustrated Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf
