A FRESH REIMAGINING OF A CLASSIC TALE, WITH A LONG-AWAITED TWIST.
This inspiring LGBT love story truly celebrates feminism, strength and justice.

While Cinder dreams of a girl with eyes the colour of the sea, Princess Ella longs for something she cannot yet imagine. When the two girls meet, their hearts are filled with joy, but what will happen when the clock strikes midnight?

With one family being a source of encouragement, the other determined to crush all attempts at happiness, the odds are firmly stacked against our heroes. Yet with the power of love and strength, hope prevails. The result is a richly purposeful and inspirational, tale where girl meets girl and love faces adversity. Will Cinder and Ella find their happily ever after?

"After so many years writing for children's TV, 'Cinder & Ella' was my first adventure into the world of children's books, and working with Owlet Press was a dream come true. Not only was the company a perfect match for this classic LGBTQ+ love story, but I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Sam Langley-Swain. His vision and expertise is second to none, and throughout the process I felt respected, inspired and beautifully challenged. Owlet Press has a new fan in me, and I hope this will be the first of many to come."
