The Glassmaker's Daughter Zusammenfassung

The Glassmaker's Daughter Dianne Hofmeyr

Daniela the glassmaker's daughter is grumpy and never smiles. Her father promises a beautiful glass palace to anyone who can make her laugh. People come from far and wide to try their luck in amusing Daniela. But mask makers, lion tamers and magicians cannot raise a smile from the princess. It is only when a young apprentice makes the first looking glass that Daniela learns to smile - at her own grumpy reflection! This beautiful fable set in sixteenth-century Venice features stunning illustrations from award-winning artist Jane Ray alongside a poetic text.

The Glassmaker's Daughter Bewertungen

Written with a narrative framework reminiscent of folktales, the story proceeds at a measured pace to its resoundingly happy ending. The artwork, created in watercolor, gouache, and ink, features richly detailed, imaginatively realized settings in sixteenth-century Venice. * Booklist *
'richly detailed illustrations by Jane Ray makes the most of the beauty of the city... An uplifting story to put a smile on everyone's face.' * Parents in Touch *
Rich illustrations, a familiar fairy-tale structure, and an upbeat message make this story a visually attractive, comfortable read. * Kirkus Reviews *
Include this book as part of a story hour featuring Italian lore or encourage slightly older readers to search for stories that feature similar motifs * School Library Connection *
