CLEVER BOOK

The story of Cinderella with very bright and detailed photographs...using dogs! I liked the book myself being a dog lover but have to agree with another reviewer that in some of the photographs, the costumes in which the dogs were dressed are a bit over whelming. All in all though, it is a cute book and very cleverly done. This kids do seem to enjoy it and that is what counts I suppose.

cinderella (fay's fairy tales)

it is a very cute book. i am glad i got it.

Wegman at his best

What a beautiful book! I got it for my sister, an avid collector and dog owner. Those dogs really show alot of love for their "dad". What an enjoyable book for all ages. highly recomended!

our whole family loves it

My wife and I were Wegman fans before he did children's books (and before we had children), and now our two daughters are fans as well, particularly of "Cinderella." The language and photography are both beautiful and funny.

Nearly the best Wegman book ever.....

I love Weimaraners - I have an adorable 9 year old named Fiori and he looks just like the ones in William Wegman's pictures. The only thing that I do not relish about the book is the evidence of Wegman's stylish move toward putting people hands onto some of the dogs. It's odd and a bit disconcerting. However, the text is charming and many of the photos are sweet (the sleeping pooch in bed with the fairy dog-mother over her). It is a fun book to read to kids and, though it perpetuates the entire Cinderella myth among girls, one can always explain that sweet princes only come along for Weimaraners!!
