"In true traditional storytelling style, Cinderella Mosley wraps the reader around and into the story of Boosh Bird, a personal narrative passed down through the generations of her family from her grandmother. With realistically simple words for children of school age to read but with the true style of storytelling, Ms. Cinderella (as she is know to children of all ages) brings you into the nest and the loving wings of the mother bird. It is very easy for the reader to become the baby bird and relate with personal connections to the "being too curious" traits of the young at heart. Illustrator Ms. Robin Nelson's interpretation of this rich story truly adds to the richness of the tale. Her attention to detail brings out the words of Storyteller Ms. Cinderella with vibrance and depth. This book should be a must for all classrooms and libraries around the country." Candace Bartsch, teacher, Regional Multicultural Magnet School, New London, CT.
"A delightfully-illustrated story that serves as an amusing reminder of how the wisdom of our elders serves to protect and guide us all. Cinderella captures the spirit of the young bird who is determined to spread her wings and learn through her own experience. A resonant tale for all the restless and curious." Laureen Pierandi, Enrichment Coordinator, Regional Multicultural Magnet School, New London, CT
"A natural born storyteller, Cinderella Mosley passes along the loving message of her dear grandmother in a sweet narrative of remembrance and wisdom. As the precious story unfolds, Robin Nelson's vibrant illustrations give flight to the tale encouraging readers to make their own connections to a Boosh Bird."
