Fanny's Dream -- Caralyn Buehner

In this inventive take on the traditional Cinderella tale, Fanny Agnes is a sturdy farm girl with a big dream. Someday, she believes, she will marry a prince. When the town mayor announces he is throwing a grand ball, Fanny is convinced her time has come. She puts on her best calico dress and goes out to the garden so that she'll be ready when her fairy godmother arrives. As the seconds tick by, Fanny waits and waits. Finally, she hears a voice. It isn't her fairy godmother-but it is someone who will change her life forever.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Caralyn Buehner, Mark Buehner<br><b>Publisher:</b> Puffin Books<br><b>Published:</b> 06/23/2003<br><b>Pages:</b> 32<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.35lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.80h x 10.50w x 0.12d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780142500606<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 3.7<br><b>Point Value:</b> 0.5<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Lower Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>17988 / Fanny's Dream<br><br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Publishers Weekly</i> 06/02/2003<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>The husband-and-wife team behind the best-selling <i>Snowmen at Night</i> and <i>Snowmen at Christmas</i>, Carolyn and Mark Buehner are also the creators of the award-winning <i>Fanny's Dream</i>.
