This was just like the typical fairytale Cinderella. It had its differences though. In this book, Trembling goes for three different sundays to church and in a different beautiful gown each time. Everyone stares at this beautiful strange woman, curious who she is. Every prince goes to see this woman on the third sunday. As she leaves the church, one prince takes off her shoe and then goes on a search to find who the shoe fits. It fits Trembling and then the princes fight for her but only one wins and they marry and have 14 children. The two mean sisters are never seen again. This book was like any other fairytale. It ended with a happy ending.… (more)

Fair, Brown, and Trembling are all sisters from Erin. Every Sunday, Fair and Brown wear beautiful new dresses to church while Trembling has to stay at home a pick up the house.

She goes to church and all of the people are very impressed by this mysterious women and her sisters try to find the pretty dress that this woman is wearing. But each week, she come back with a new dress and the news of her spread wide and men came from all over to find her. The prince fell in love with her and looked all over the land and finally found Trembling and had to fight off other men and they got married… (more)

This story is set on an olden day farm. The seasons in the book is not your normal seasons it is actually the seasons of life. This book uses a family with two kids and explain the things they go through day by day. The kids in my class knew what some of the pages where without me reading them such as the young child losing his kite and crying. They loved the book and all the pictures. It also showed them how planting and other things where done in the past.
