Little Blue Slipper an Irish Cinderella Story

A lively Irish folk tale illustrated with water-colours delicately depicting the lush landscapes and elaborate costumes of 15th-century Ireland.

Three sisters live in a castle high among Erin’s green hills. Fair and Brown go to church each Sunday, leaving their beautiful young sister, Trembling, at home to cook and sweep. Then one morning an old henwife comes to call and, before she knows it, Trembling finds herself dressed in a lily-white silk gown riding to church on a milk-white mare.

Delicate, naive-style paintings accurately depict the dress of 15th-century Ireland.
A traditional Irish legend based on the story of Cinderella.
