ISBN: 9781570613555 Author: Dwyer, Mindy (Author) Publisher: Paws IV Publishing Published: April 2004 Retail: $11.99 OUR PRICE: $8.12 You Save 32% Binding Type: Paperback Annotation: One of the most popular children's books about Alaska, The Salmon Princess retells the classic Cinderella story through an Alaskan lens. In this adaptation of the well-loved fairy tale, the father still has his head in the clouds and the stepmother is as mean as ever. But this story is set in the Last Frontier, and its details and imagery reflect Alaska's landscape and sensibility: the fairy godmother becomes an eagle spirit, the glass slipper a fisherwoman's boot. Evocative writing and colorful artwork distinguish this playful retelling of the classic. Here children learn about cultures and ways of life but happy endings are still the rule. |
