Children's Illustrations of Cinderella

These wonderful illustrations were created by a class of first-graders following a read aloud and group discussion of Rafe Martin's The Rough-Face Girl. The children stretched their colorful imaginations to draw their own reinterpretations of the story. Enjoy this "photo gallery" of their fun and fantastic work!!!
