The Rough-Face Girl

Bibliographic Information: Martin, R. (1992). The rough-face girl. New York, New York: G. P. Putnam's Son's.

Annotation: This is a Native American version of Cinderella.

Genre: Fairytale

Grade Level: P

Readers Who Will Like This Book: Readers who enjoy stories about Native Americans and Cinderella stories.

Personal Response and Rating: I rate this book a 4. The illustrations and text are paired very well and the reader can clearly see that beauty does not mean goodness. I especially liked the scene in the end of the book where the Rough-Face Girl literally washes away the ugliness to reveal how beautiful a person, in spirit, she truly is.

Prereading Question: Tell me what the statement, "Beauty is only skin deep," means.
