ABOUT
After Cinderella leaves her glass slipper behind at the ball, one of her conniving step-sisters has a plan to trick the prince into falling in love with her, not Cinderella. But maybe Cinderella doesn't want to be with a man who chooses his life partner based on her footwear; maybe Cinderella wants something more for herself!
With brand-new and wickedly funny illustrations, this splendiferous rhyming picture book is perfect for kids who like their fairy tales with a bit of sharpness to them--and lots of laughs. Told in Dahl's signature zany tone with the wit and bite that millions have loved for over fifty years, this Cinderella story is unlike any you've read before.
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
