You may think you already know this story about a beautiful servant girl, a cruel stepmother, a magnificent ball, and a lost slipper. But you've never heard it for true.Now you can hear the tale from someone who was there: a poor washerwoman from the island of Martinique. She has just one thing in the world to love, her goddaughter Cendrillon. When she finds Cendrillon heartsick over a rich man's son, at first she doesn't know what to do. But she has sharp wits, a strong will, and the magic wand her mother left her -- and soon she has a plan to give her dear Cendrillon the gift of a love that will change her life.
A Caldecott Honor author/illustrator team brings us a unique Cinderalla story, with a remarkable fairy godmother to tell the tale. Adapted from a traditional Creole story, this fresh retelling captures all the age-old romance and magic of Cinderalla, melding it with the vivid beauty of the Caribbean and the musical language of the islands.

Excellent shoes - good fit, nice look.
Excellent shoes - great value for money! Attractive and well built. Got several unsolicited compliments from co-workers. They are stiff at first and require a bit more of a break-in period than some other shoes I have purchased lately. I hope that is a sign of durability ...

Quality!
Size: 11.5, Color: Black Crazy Horse, Size: 11.5, Color: Black Crazy Horse
Stylish and most importantly they are comfortable right out of the box, no breaking in required. This is my second pair, I now own both the black and brown colors to compliment almost any outfit. Worth the price!

Absolutely comfortable.
Size: 9, Color: Brown Multi
I am always on the lookout for a professional, but very comfortable shoe (education field with a lot of walking). These Florsheims fit the bill and make me wonder why I never bought these before. Something about them just didn't "look" comfortable to me but man was I wrong. These are easily among my most comfortable work shoes with the bonus of also looking more professional. I will say they have some heft to them, so if that's a problem for you these may not be right for you. As for me, they are right as rain.
I purchased the black and brown ones (with white souls) and they are at the top of my rotation now. I look forward to trying some more from Thai company.
