In another contribution to Chronicle’s handsomely illustrated bilingual fairytale series, Cinderella/Cenicienta, adapted by Francesc Boada, Monse Fransoy’s witty framed and spot illustrations feature the humble heroine carting off her stepsisters’ discarded clothes while they primp and preen, and the villainous women fainting at the sight of Cinderella modeling the glass slipper when the prince’s footman comes to call.
