2 new Dutch Cinderella books

Archana — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 23:38:13 +0000

My friend Ria found 2 new Dutch Cinderella books. Ria is like my “personal Cinderella book shopper”. I don’t know where she finds them, but she does. Every now and then I receive an email from Ria with a photo from the book(s) or other interesting items she found. I am always excited because Ria mostly finds Cinderella books that I don’t have in my collection and as you can see I have a lot of Cinderella books… Yesterday I visited Ria to pick up some rare items like the 2 books below. She also found some more things, later this week I will add them to the website. Enjoy the new books.

A different Cinderella story

Archana — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 22:06:07 +0000

Here is another Cinderella story. My boyfriend has an app on his iPhone with only Grimm fairytale stories. He showed me this Cinderella story. It’s like a comic book and I think it’s more a thingy for adults. I’d still like to share this with you… I am always interested in different Cinderella stories and also in this story. If you know other interesting Cinderella stories, just sent me a link or some photo’s.

Cinderella in the Efteling park

Archana — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 21:19:48 +0000

Did you know that there is a fairytale forrest in The Netherlands? It’s called The Efteling. The opening was in 1952 and The Efteling is entertaining visitors from all over the world untill today. Through the years The Efteling suprised it’s visitors with new and exciting attractions and entertainment for the young but also for the old. The Efteling park is proud to be an international leader in the tourism and recreation industry.

In 2009 The Efteling suprised us with a new attraction to it’s fairytale forrest: Cinderella (Assepoester in Dutch).
You can now visit the house where Cinderella lived with her stepmother and stepsisters in The Efteling park. When you enter the Cinderella garden, not only you will see some coloured dove’s flying around, you’ll also see a book displayed at the entry of the garden. Here you can read the Cinderlla story.

A coupple of meters further you see the grave of Cinderella’s mother with a small bouquet of flowers and an oil lamp. You are now almost at the frontdoor of the house. On the right you can see some big pumpkins on the ground in the garden. When you enter the house you will see a little scene where the prince is trying Cinderella to fit the glass slipper. You will hear a small story about this and when it’s ended you walk outside.

There is also a little store where you can buy some Cinderella items. Last September I have visited the Cinderella house and also made some photo’s. Ofcourse I was really excited to go there. I felt like a little girl again. Most people expected more from this new attraction. And I? I was very proud and happy that finally Cinderella has her own place in The Efteling park!
