The Ladybird story you loved as a child and never forgot
First they brought back Ladybirds as modern satire, then they brought them in as the 'Expert' series (both aimed at adults). Now they have realized that the adults buying the satire and new history/science series are the same people that loved, once upon a time, the children's stories. I adored Cinderella by Vera South, with the enchanting illustrations, when I was about five. Fifty years later, I bought the book again: new as the day my parents bought it for me then! Wonderful quality, just like the original.

Favourite book growing up
Cinderella was always my favourite book as a child I always remembered the vivid colours of her beautiful dresses. I still have the original worn out version from when I was little some 50+ years ago. So now I am thrilled to have a fresh new copy.

At Last! Ladybird have re-released my childhood favourite!
I had been searching for this version of the Ladybird Cinderella for ages to show my own children - but could only find collectors items selling for close to £100!! Got lucky and pre-ordered this on Amazon after another random search and I am thrilled (it is the one with the three balls and the three beautiful dresses- not like the disney version...)In fact I bought two copies one for kids and another for my bookshelf - no child will be touching it...I had loads of the (now vintage) Ladybird books in pristine condition as a child, and I so wish that my mother had kept them - worth a fortune now! But it's great that a new generation can read these beautifully illustrated books which first made me love books and reading.Enjoy and keep!

Perfect Condition!
I bought this as a gift for my mum who briefly mentioned it was her favorite childhood book and her wedding dress was inspired by Cinderellas dress! So I thought it would be a good idea to get for a small gift for Christmas. She mentioned the blue cover and I was worried it would come without the sleeve but it was perfect! Great quality and exactly as described. Couldn’t be happier and I hope my mum enjoys getting reunited with her favourite childhood book:)
