Theres nothing like a canine companion to get a girl out of the house and her mind off her troubles! Yes, indeed, dogs do make everything betterand are a reminder that you dont need happily ever after when you have the joy of now. Readers will get a kick out of this retelling with its lovable cast of characters and refreshing ending.


Review

Who doesnt love a good furry tail? . . . Cinderella details get doggified, and the ball ends up being a howl in more ways than one. Spoiler alert: Theres a twist on the glass-slipper-leading-to-marriage ending. Not to worry. This ones much betterand involves squirrels. This rollicking story will arouse plenty of giggles as young readers enumerate the ways in which it veers from the original. Adults can encourage little ones to think of how Cinderella might work with other animals subbing in for the fairy godmothers. The imaginative, colorful digital illustrations burst with energy and expressiveness. . . . The brown, floppy-eared, tutu-wearing dogmother is adorably memorable. A barking good time will be had by all. Kirkus Reviews

Although the jaunty text ruff-ly follows the traditional tale, in the end, Cinderella exhibits independence with a prince she likes but doesnt know well enough to marry. Cheery, cartoonish illustrations lend to the cleverness in this feminist, fractured fairy tale. Booklist
