About the Author
Babette Cole is the zany, inspired pen and brush behind a number of wildly popular and successful children's books. In a review of The BAD Good Manners Book (Dial), Publishers Weekly hailed her as "a connoisseur of the ridiculous." Ms. Cole lives in Lincolnshire, England.
From Publishers Weekly
Take a classic story, substitute a few key ingredients, season freely with silliness and imagination, dress it all up in jaunty illustrations, and what have you got? In the case of Cole's Prince Cinders, an outrageously funny romp of a picture book. Prince Cinders is a spotty, skinny fellow who envies his brothers' brawn and hairiness. Left behind to do the laundry while they zoom off to the Palace Disco, he is visited one evening by a fairy who seeks to grant his wishes. Trouble is, the fairy hasn't quite gotten the knack of spell-casting and "big and hairy" translates into an oversized ape. Blissfully unaware of the slip-up, Prince Cinders heads off in his new incarnation to the Rock 'n' Royal Bash to claim his princessa conventional end he achieves through most unconventional means. A madcap, highly entertaining spoof. Ages 5-8.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Babette Cole (illustrator). Reprint. First published in the UK by Hamish Hamilton, 1987, this is the second impression of the US edition. A zany and delightful twist on the traditional Cinderella story: a "small, spotty, scruffy and skinny" prince instead of a princess; a pair of jeans instead of a glass slipper; a dirty and rather inept fairy who falls down the chimney, and so on. Great stuff. The author has inscribed and signed this copy on the title page" To Tony love from Babette Cole". Bottom corners very slightly bumped, some slight yellowing to edges, but a near fine copy in fine dust jacket. Inscribed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 000492
