HIT: ELEM: Australian Cinderella versions (plus other Cindrella resources)

[Charlotte Lesser <clesser@MRSD.ORG>]

First a big thank you to everyone who made these hits possible, especially
Barbara Braxton who posted my request on the Australian teachers list-serv!

Many people also asked me for the Cinderella lists that I have - actually I
got them from other LM-NET postings:
http://ericir.syr.edu/plweb-cgi/fastweb?getdoc+listservs+LM_NET+13339+2+wAAA
in particular.
If you do a search at the LM-NET archives there are several lists and lesson
plan ideas there.

There is a bibliography at:
www.ucalgary.ca/~dkbrown/cinderella.html

A webquest at:
www.plainfield.k12.in.us/hschool/webq/webq121/

I also found a bibliography on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/21X1XKDU9FQS/qi
d=1007648030/sr=5-1/ref=sr_5_10_1/002-4548211-0679211
if this link doesn't work, just do a book title search on "Cinderella" and
you will see a link to a Multicultural Cinderella booklist that was created.

There is a bibliography in: Pike, Kathy and Jean Mumper.  Books don't have
to be flat: innovative ways to publish students' writing in every curriculum
area.
New York:  Scholastic Professional Books, 1998.

There is a Cinderella lesson plan in: Roach, Catharyn and JoAnne Moore.
Teaching library skills in grades K through 6.  New York:  Neal-Schuman,
1993.

Mailbox magazine, Primary issue April/May 2001 has an article and
reproducibles for Cinderella.


AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
Here are the Australian responses!
++++++++++
I think that Strawberry Peach and The Two Lumps of Lead would probably be
classified as an Aussie version - or perhaps New Zealand. Do you have it on
your list? It was published by Scholastic.

++++++++++
Hi, try Uncle Arthur's Bedtime Stories Cinderella retold by Glenn Robbins
and Rob Menzies published by Angus and Robertson  ISBN 0207196079   - rather
funny.  De at Wollongong Public School

++++++++++++

The only one I can think of is a book called Chunderella which is part
of a series called Twisted tales. The book is by Bill Condon publishered
by Hodder Headline Australia 1998. ISBN 0733608299 Not exactly the fairy
tale but a funny twist on the story.

+++++++++++++

The only version that I know of is called Alex and the glass slipper by
Amanda Graham.
It is unusual in that it is back to back with a version of Cinderella retold
and illustrated by Amanda Graham.

Published by Martin International in association with Era Publications,
Flinders Park , South Australia. 1991

ISBN    0-947212-97-3  ( hardcover)
