TWINDERELLA, A FRACTIONED FAIRY TALE

From the author of The Three Ninja Pigs comes the fractioned fairy tale of Cinderella and her less-famous sister, Tinderella, who she always has to share with.

Cinderella and her lesser-known twin, Tinderella, split everything right down the middle. They each do half the housework, half the mending, and half the mean step-sister tending. When the Prince throws a ball, their fairy godmother sends them both, and they dance the night away with the prince. But he simply can't choose between Cin and Tin, and they are in need of some clever thinking and just a pinch of magic. The Prince agrees to share his kingdom half and half, and the fairy-godmother makes him a twin too, so they can all live happily ever after. Cin and the Prince rule the kingdom, while Tin and the Twin win all the kingdom's math competitions. It truly is a happily ever half-ter.

FRACTIONED FAIRY TALE: This twist on the classic Cinderella expands on the characters and events of the story in a fun way and includes many math jokes that fractured tale fans will love.
SIBLINGS CAN GET ALONG: Parents will love that it's a story about getting along with one another and learning to share and compromise so everyone is happy.
A VERY MODERN TWIST: The girls have the power in this story, and decide which prince to romance based on interests rather than title.
STEM CONNECTIONS: Riffs involving math abound (fractions, addition, division) and will inspire many fun elementary classroom lessons.
FRESH, STYLIZED ART: Deborah Marcero is an exciting new talent whose style is the perfect mixture of modern and classic at the same time.
