Synopsis

"Encourages children to expand their dreams beyond traditional gender and socioeconomic roles."--Foreword Reviews

Cinderstella has plans for her own happily ever after. A future princess she is not.

Her calculations and equations are simple enough -- she'd rather be an astronaut! Read along in this modern retelling of a beloved fairy tale, as Cinderstella challenges what is expected of her to pursue her true passion and find a universe of opportunity in planets and stars.

Included is a Note to Readers that provides suggestions for parents, caregivers, and educators to spark children's interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields and related careers despite lingering gender stereotypes and biases that exist.
