9세기 경에 중국에서 처음 만들어진 것으로 알려져 있는 신데렐라 이야가는 지구상의 모든 나라로 퍼지면서 각 나라마다 고유한 특성이 반영된 이야기로 다시 만들어졌습니다만, 기본적인 이야기 구조는 모두 변화없이 동일합니다.

이 책에서는 우리나라(콩쥐 팥쥐)를 비롯해서 총 17개 국가에서 전래되어 온 신데렐라 이야기를 책 한 권으로 재구성해서 만들었습니다.

각 페이지마다 나라별 의상과 문화와 고유한 문양으로 그려진 그림이 독자들의 눈을 즐겁게 해줍니다. 우리나라에 해당하는 부분은 학대를 받는 팥쥐가 아궁이에서 자는 모습과 마지막에 발에 맞는 짚신을 신는 장면이 수록되어 있으며, 그 외에도 일본, 중국, 라오스, 인디아, 이란, 이라크, 인도네시아, 짐바브웨, 러시아, 폴랜드, 독일, 프랑스, 아일랜드, 미국, 멕시코, 서인도 제도 등 17개 국가별로 그 나라의 특징을 잘 보여주는 그림들이 실려 있습니다.

What is 하드커버? 양장본이라고도 불리우며, 표지가 단단한 판지로 만들어진 책입니다. 판지를 천이나 가죽으로 감싸기도 합니다. 책의 속지는 일반적으로 중성처리된 종이(Acid-free paper)를 사용해서 잘 변질이 되지 않기 때문에 오랫동안 보관하기에 적합합니다. 이 종류의 책은 더스트 재킷, 또는 더스트 커버로 불리는 표지덮개가 함께 있는 경우가 많습니다. 간혹 내부 속지가 콩기름 코팅이 된 경우 고약한 냄새가 나는 책도 있습니다.

하드커버책입니다.

Book Description
Once upon a time, in Mexico . . . in Ireland . . . in Zimbabwe . . . there lived a girl who worked all day in the rice fields . . . then spent the night by the hearth, sleeping among the cinders.
Her name is Ashpet, Sootface, Cendrillon . . . Cinderella. Her story has been passed down the centuries and across continents. Now Paul Fleischman and Julie Paschkis craft its many versions into one hymn to the rich variety and the enduring constants of our cultures.


Publishers Weekly *Starred Review*
Beneath its handsome William Morris - like cover art, this inspired retelling blends many versions of Cinderella into a single, extraordinary tale. As Newbery Medalist Fleischman's (Joyful Noise) strong storytelling voice incorporates sometimes small details from different traditions, text and illustrations nimbly morph from one Cinderella story to the next, creating this brand-new version. Paschkis (Yellow Elephant) makes use of folk art and textile patterns throughout the world in the clever background paintings behind each of her vibrant panel illustrations, and she helpfully and unobtrusively labels the country from which relevant borrowings originate. Generally, each page focuses on a single country's contributions, but even when details from several countries share a spread, visual harmony prevails and characters remain recognizable despite their costume changes. When Cinderella has nothing to wear, for example, a crocodile swam up to the surface - and in its mouth was a sarong made of gold [Indonesia]... a cloak sewn of kingfisher feathers [China]... a kimono red as sunset [Japan]. Even the last line of text is patched from several sources: Such a wedding it was, and such an adoring couple [Iraq]... and such a wondrous turn of events [Korea]... that people today are still telling the story. Paschkis emphasizes the storyteller's voice by beginning and ending the narrative with illustrations of a mother reading to her daughter - a daughter who, appropriately, looks much like Cinderella herself.


School Library Journal *Starred Review*
Capitalizing on the frequently made assertion that Cinderella is the most widely told folktale on earth, Fleischman and Paschkis have created a pan-cultural, universally pleasing interweaving of variants from 17 distinct cultures. This clever books reads nearly seamlessly and somehow manages to convey simultaneously the essential sameness of the story and the particularities of the different versions. Dressing for the royal shindig, our heroine, "…looked in her mother's sewing basket (Laos). Then she reached into the hole in the birch tree (Russia). Then a crocodile swam up to the surface - and in its mouth was a sarong made of gold (Indonesia)…a cloak sewn of kingfisher feathers (China)…a kimono red as sunset (Japan)." Paschkis's backgrounds to the text and gouache illustrations alert readers to the shifts in locale by the use of color-coding and of folk-art design motifs drawn from each culture until the final scene where costumes, dances, music, and cuisines from across the globe convene at a wedding so wondrous "that people today are still telling the story." Endings don't get any happier than in this global tour de force.
