Reviews"Who doesn't love a good "furry tail"? . . . 'Cinderella' details get 'doggified,' and the ball ends up being a howl in more ways than one. Spoiler alert: There's a twist on the glass-slipper-leading-to-marriage ending. Not to worry. This one's much better--and 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 doesn't know well enough to marry. Cheery, cartoonish illustrations lend to the cleverness in this feminist, fractured fairy tale." -- Booklist, "Who doesn't love a good "furry tail"? . . .

SynopsisA hilarious picture book featuring a dog-loving kingdom and the most fabulous, far-out fairy DOGmother ever! Here is a Cinderella story like no other. When Cinderella wishes for a fairy godmother, she's not expecting one that barks! And this fairy dogmother has a different agenda. Yes, Cinderella will have a new dress, but made of a cozy dog blanket. Yes, they will go to the ball, but they will run there and chase squirrels along the way. There's 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 better-and are a reminder that you don't 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.
