In this traditional Irish variant of the Cinderella story a henwife with magical powers befriends the youngest of three sisters. Whilst Fair and Brown wear fine frocks to church, Trembling is confined to the castle kitchen for fear that her beauty will cause her to be married before them. Full colour illustrations full of medieval and celtic motifs help sustain the mysterious atmosphere of this satisfying account of injustice reversed.
