Gr 3–5—The authors of the "Goddess Girls" series (S. & S.) take on the leading ladies made famous by the Brothers Grimm. The books feature a diverse cast and give the fairy tales modern makeovers. In Cinderella, new girl Cinda teams up with her friends Red, Snow, and Rapunzel to save Prince Awesome's ball from her stepsisters' treachery. In Red Riding Hood, the title character battles stage fright while trying out for the school play but might have to put her acting skills to work when she confronts the possibly villainous Wolfgang in the Neverwood forest.
