          <body><![CDATA[I read this book so many years ago, it'll be hard to do the review justice.  The main thing that sticks out in my mind is how amazingly well this male author writes a deeply personal and emotional narrative of a female character.  There are times when you want to hate the main character, but you sti...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/12586730">more...</a>]]></body>

Cinderella Skeleton has to put dirt and cobwebs *into* the house for her chores, and instead of losing her slipper, her whole ankle bone snaps off.  It's absolutely hilarious, and the illustrations are wonderful.  A truly original versio...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/15480581">more...</a>]]></body>
