Publisher Comments:

From the Algonquin Indians comes an unusual and touching version of the Cinderella story. In their village lives an invisible being whom all the young women want to marry, because it is said that he is powerful and handsome. But only the rough-face girl, burned and scarred from tending the fires, has the vision to see him in every part of the natural world. Full-color illustrations.

I love this book, i read this book when i was in 1st grade i think... i still remember the whole story... the only thing i didn't remember was the title.. there are stories that have the same story line. Like Sootface: An Ojibwa Cinderella Story.. about the same but alittle different in it's own ways...
