Interstellar Cinderella by Deborah Underwood
5.0

I’ve found another gem!

A have a soft spot for rhyming which really does help in my love for this book, but it was actually immensely funny and clever.

A spacey twist on the classic story, Cinderella is a space mechanic who dreams of fixing rockets. After the usual mess of running from the prince and being found again, she refuses his hand in marriage and is appointed as royal mechanic instead.

The language is wonderfully witty, whilst also being complex enough to make children ask questions and want to find out more about space. A great resource for the classroom.
