Ruth Heller의 아름다운 그림이 돋보이는 이집트판 신데렐라 이야기입니다.
로도피스는 어려서 그리스의 집에서 해적들에게 납치된 후 이집트에서 하녀로 팔렸습니다. 로도피스의 주인은 그녀가 맨발인 것을 가엽게 여기고 예쁜 슬리퍼 신발을 맞춰줬습니다. 어느날 심술궂은 다른 하녀들이 로도피스를 남겨두고 멤피스로 파라오를 구경하러 떠나고, 로도피스는 혼자 남아서 집안 일을 하다가, 그만 매가 로도피스의 아름다운 슬리퍼 한 짝을 가로채서 날라가 버렸습니다. 매는 그 슬리퍼를 파라오의 무릎 위에 떨어트리자, 파라오는 이 것을 신의 계시라 생각하고는 슬리퍼의 주인과 결혼하기로 결심합니다. 파라오는 슬리퍼의 주인을 찾기 위해 이집트 전국의 처녀들에게 슬리퍼를 신어 보게 하지만, 슬리퍼가 워낙 작아서 주인을 찾을 수가 없었습니다...

Book Description
In this version of Cinderella set in Egypt in the sixth century B.C., Rhodopes, a slave girl, eventually comes to be chosen by the Pharaoh to be his queen.
Publishers Weekly
The setting may be exotic and the glass slippers may have been replaced by leather ones with toes of rose-red gold, but this is a story no child could fail to recognize. Climo's intriguing variation on the Cinderella tale is based on a combination of fact (there was indeed a Greek slave girl named Rhodopis who married the Pharaoh Amasis), and fable--in this case, Egyptian. A trio of uppity servant girls assume the roles of the wicked stepsisters, a kindly master serves as the fairy godmother (to provide the slippers) and a handsome pharoah steps in as Prince Charming. The foreign locale comes complete with lotus flowers, a hippo, a great falcon (symbol of the Egyptian sky god Horus) and, of course, the River Nile. Climo hits just the right note in her imaginative retelling of the fairy tale. The text is incorporated in the design of Heller's stylized illustrations with their appropriately lush colors.
Children's Literature
In this clever retelling of an ancient Egyptian tale, a Greek slave girl named Rhodopis receives a pair of rose-red slippers from her kindly old master. When a falcon swoops down and soars away with one of the beautiful shoes, she becomes heartbroken. Unbeknownst to her, the falcon delivers her slipper to the great Pharaoh himself, who sets out on a journey to find the slipper's owner. When he locates Rhodopis, he falls in love and makes her his wife and beloved queen. Both adults and children will enjoy this book's eloquent prose and exquisite illustrations. - Debra Briatico
School Library Journal
A stunning combination of fluent prose and exquisitely wrought illustrations. Climo has woven this ancient tale, a mixture of fact and myth, with clarity and eloquence. The beauty of the language is set off to perfection by Heller's arresting full-color illustrations. The story of Rhodopis, a Greek slave girl in ancient Egypt, is an interesting variant of the traditional Cinderella legend. Because of her rosy complexion and fair hair, Rhodopis is scorned and teased by the Egyptian servant girls who work for her kind but disinterested master. Rhodopis' happy fate, becoming the wife of Pharaoh Amasis (570-526 ..), is accomplished through the intercession of the great falcon, symbol of the god Horus. When the majestic bird deposits one of Rhodopis' rosy-gold slippers, a gift from her master, in the lap of the Pharaoh, he determines this to be a signal from the gods to marry the maiden whose foot it fits. Powerful visual presentations reminiscent of the figures on Egyptian frieze paintings and carvings, colorful birds and animals that pulse with life, and information about Egyptian mythology and civilization are subtly interwoven into the traditional folktale. This will certainly be a winner for story hours, as well as a useful resource for the study of Cinderella through the ages and throughout the world. --Martha Rosen, Edgewood Sch . , Scarsdale, NY
