Cinderella's Stepsister and the Big Bad Wolf

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Migy Blanco. Gertie, a previously unnoticed stepsister to Cinderella, doesn't behave with the requisite mean-girl behavior her family demands. Instruction from villains of "Snow White," "Hansel and Gretel," and "Little Red Riding Hood" is of no use--Gertie can't help being nice, which eventually gives her a leg up on Cinderella in this satisfying fractured fairy tale. Blanco's digital illustrations have a neat retro air.
