Online resources: Summary: [Online review] In this original story starring some recognisable fairytale characters, we meet Cinderella living a happy life in Fairytale Village. She loves nothing more than dancing so is very happy when her friend Beauty reveals that a new dance school is opening and offering free lessons. Sadly for Cinderella, her family simply can’t afford the ballet shoes needed to attend and, when dad says she will have to wait until her next birthday, it looks as though she will miss out! Whilst excitement grows from everyone else, Cinderella can only watch on in despair. Even a visit to her godmother, Griselda, offers no solutions. Cinderella pours herself into acts of kindness but finds it very hard to stay cheerful. When the day of the first dance lesson arrives, it could be those acts of kindness that come back and offer Cinderella an opportunity (with a few shoe not fitting mishaps along the way)! https://fatherreading.wordpress.com/2019/09/19/review-cinderellas-ballet-shoes/
