Loading... Cinderlily: A Floral Fairy Taleby David Ellwand, Christine Tagg (Illustrator)
None. Another Cinderella story, told with flowers. It's great for teaching about different types of print and story progression. (  ) Ginger_Malone | Apr 24, 2013 |  A delightful and unusual way to tell a well-known story. (  ) SarahEHWilson | Jul 15, 2012 | Genre: Fairytale Review: This is a fairytale because it has a happy ending. It plays towards ones imagination as it turns flowers into characters. This also exemplifies a fairytale because it is based off of the story of Cinderella, which has been told over and over again. Style: This book has unique way of resembling the story as the illustrator creates the images through photography and natural materials like flowers. Each flower is beautifully placed in order to help the story come alive. The Illustrator took some so simple and produced a work of art. ( ) Pieper | Mar 2, 2012 | Age appropriatness: primary This book is a good example of fairy tale because it is a remake or alteration of the original Cinderella story. In this book Cinderella is a lily flower. The media in this book is collage and photographs. (  ) mmandecka | Jan 9, 2009 | no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0763623288, Hardcover)Where have all the flowers gone? They’re dancing up a storm in this whimsical, wondrous rendition of a well-known fairy tale, created by the one and only David Ellwand.For hours beneath the velvet sky they dance without a care, Until the clock chimes midnight . . . then she’s no longer there! Just a single lily petal and her fragrance in the air. One magic night, a poor cinder girl is granted an impossible wish. It may be the most familiar of tales, but under the inimitable wand of David Ellwand, this timeless story blooms as never before. Here, the innocent heroine is a delicate flower, a lily whose faded petals spring to new life as she arrives at the Sultan’s ball in a butterfly-drawn coach. When the smitten Prince sets out in search of the shy, retiring flower who has vanished into thin air, leaving but a petal behind, it’s clear that Cinderlily’s comically garish, pansy-faced stepsisters won’t stand a chance. With singular vision, humor, and a touch of computer magic, David Ellwand directs a delightfully expressive cast of flowers in a breathtaking production sure to enchant lovers of fairy tales - and lovers of flowers, too. (retrieved from Amazon Thu, 14 Apr 2011 08:00:29 -0400) Flowers represent all the characters in this version of the classic fairy tale. |
