Children's Literature

Rachel and Kirsty are excited about participating in the upcoming holiday production of Cinderella. But when they arrive at the rehearsal hall they discover that the costumes have arrived and none of them fit the actors correctly. In the midst of the frustration, Paige the Christmas Play Fairy appears and tells the girls that Jack Frost is determined to ruin the play because he was not selected for the part of Prince Charming. A ballet shoe must be recovered from his demons to break the spell of the ill-fitting costumes. A golden horseshoe is required for the scenery and props to function properly and Cinderella's glass slipper holds the secret for all of the players remembering their lines. Rachel, Kirsty, and Paige work together to defeat Jack Frost and the demons. This results in some unusual adaptations as the play is being performed. These add humor to the production and result in a standing ovation. Simple pen-and-ink drawings contribute meaning. An accessible and enjoyable read for middle-grade girls. Part of the "Rainbow Magic" series. Reviewer: Phyllis Kennemer, Ph.D.
