Mouse Called Fred," by Deborah Hopkinson, 2023
"Cinderella and a Mouse Called Fred" is Deborah Hopkinson's unorthodox take on the familiar tale, here told from the point of view of Fred, the mouse who (transformed temporarily into a horse) pulls Cinderella's pumpkin coach to the prince's palace. On some pages, curvy red bands frame images representing thoughts or memories; these pictures reminded me of the Rococo period in European art.
