Walt Disney's Cinderella (Re-Issue)
Walt Disney's Cinderella (Re-Issue) | Cynthia Rylant
6 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
"This is a story about darkness and light, about sorrow and joy, about something lost and something found. This is a story about love." Cinderella's story has been told over and over, but never has it been touched by the kind of magic created by the contributors of this book. Mary Blair painted the original pictures for Walt Disney's incomparable animated film, and here her elegant art is gathered together as a picture book. Cynthia Rylant's stories about hardscrabble lives have won not only awards and honors, but hearts. Who better to take a young girl from the darkness of her garret room to the light and brilliance of a ballroom? Together these two great artists have created something quite astonishing: a Cinderella that is breathtaking, heartrending, and joyous, both for those who are coming to the tale for the very first time, and for those who think they know it well.

I have always loved the King's part in the movie. He is so excitable, and unrealistic in his demands to the Duke but he also has a childlike glee...

Anyway, here he is captured in book form ♥️

OrangeMooseReads I always loved the King too 7y

I really love Mary Blair's drawings ♥️

Cinderella's house and Cinderella's life were ruled by a cold, hard woman with a face of stone and a heart sick with envy.

Ahhhhh, these may be the prettiest shoes soles I own! (There is a different picture on the other shoe)

Has anyone had Irregular Choice shoes before? How do the soles go? Are the sole protectors worth it?

Chachic Oh wow, this is awesome! 7y
