A lovely short Native American folk tale like to Cinderella in that information technology has a mistreated daughter who rises to prominence above her sisters due to her good centre catching the eye of a higher-up fellow. But unlike the European diverseness, this one doesn't have a fairy godmother and relies entirely on the girl's resourcefulness; she depends on her intelligence to win.There'southward other familiar elements like the "slippers" and fine dress for going to the thou place, but no cabbage wagon and midnight deadlines, and the "Prince" is more than mysterious, harder to ascertain. The latter office and the caption for why our cinder girl is "crude-faced" make me say this one also has but a wee pinch of Beauty and the Brute as well. The art is keen, looks like paintings and the scenes complement the text very well, and the illustrations probably look much ameliorate in impress than in my Kindle edition.

In a village near Lake Ontario, there lived a poor man who
I have read many versions of this archetype Native American "Cinderella" story, but never have I read a version with such dramatic illustrations. "The Rough-Face Girl" is a Native American tale retold by Rafe Martin forth with illustrations past David Shannon and it details about how a young miserable girl realizes that having a pure heart can set her free. "The Rough-Face Girl" is a truly vivid tale for children to savor for many years!In a village nigh Lake Ontario, in that location lived a poor man who had 3 daughters. The two older daughters were vain and cruel and they treated their youngest sister cruelly past making her exercise all the housework to the point where the younger sister was charred and looked hideous. I 24-hour interval, the invisible existence who was a rich and powerful man wanted to have a wife and he would only marry the adult female who could see him.
Before I have read this volume, I had read another version of the pop "Cinderella" Native American tale called "Sootface" which was written by Robert D. San Souci. Well by this time, I have already known this story and it was no surprise that it was again about a young girl who was mistreated by her sisters, nonetheless her pure heart wins her the homo of her dreams. Rafe Martin's writing is extremely dramatic and uplifting and I loved the fashion that the youngest daughter did everything she could to win the prince'south heart including making her ain clothes despite being ridiculed by her hamlet and her sisters. It was besides nice how Rafe Martin showed the sisters' cruelness to their youngest sister as something and then undesirable and how their wicked ways caused their undoing towards the end. David Shannon's illustrations are extremely marvelous in this book equally all the characters look extremely cute, peculiarly of the artwork of the blueish skies and I really loved the image of the invisible human being shown as some kind of symbol in the sky every bit his optics are shown as birds and a rainbow expresses his nose and information technology blends then well with the sky that I did not recognize this prototype until I look closer. Probably my favorite image of the invisible existence was when he was riding through the Milky Way that was made of stars. I also loved the Native American clothing the characters wear equally they all look so stunning, especially of the brutal sisters' wear as they accept beaded moccasins and gorgeous necklaces that make them sparkle through the illustrations.
Parents should know that there are some scary images in this book such as how some characters are shown in shadows and their faces are darken and wait a little menacing. While these images might scare smaller children, the images that might scare smaller children the most would be when the youngest girl meets the invisible man and his large advent in the dark might look a bit frightening. Parents might want to read this book first before they read information technology to their kid to see if they do non mind scary images.
Overall, "The Rough-Face Daughter" is a truly memorizing volume for children who are interested in Native American folktales and who honey "Cinderella" styled tales. I would recommend this book to children ages 5 and upwardly since there are some images that might scare smaller children.

The Rough-Face Girl is the third retelling of this seemingly widespread tale from the Algonquin peoples of native Due north America, following upon Terri Cohlene'due south Little Firefly: An Algonquian Fable and Robert D. San Souci'south Sootface: An Ojibwa Cinderella Story , that I have read. I found Martin's telling engaging, and David Shannon's accompanying artwork beautiful, although I think I adopt the San Souci, past just a margin. I do discover it interesting, when considering this story, that the heroine'south prospective bridegroom seems supernatural, with his bow made of the rainbow, and his sled made of the Milky Way. Is he meant to be a spirit beingness? Does Rough-Face Girl's wedlock with him accept some greater significance, beyond the usual 'kindness is rewarded with connubial elation' that one sees in this kind of story? I'd love to know more about Martin's specific sources for this telling, just unlike San Souci, he does not provide that data. Still, leaving aside these questions, this is an enjoyable story, 1 that is paired with strikingly cute artwork. Recommended to young folklore enthusiasts, and to readers interested in worldwide variants of the Cinderella story. ...more

The illustrations are fabulous, each one a worthy painting on its own, simply the story and pictures meld beautifully.

So many questions! So lilliputian time until our 1 month ceremony...

The Rough Face Girl by Rafe Martin is a retelling of Cinderella past using Native American folktale. The author states that this story is an original Algonquin Indian Cinderella story.The Rough Face Daughter was awarded the CBC children's volume of the year. Illustrated by David Shannon
The stories plot begins very similar to the traditional Cinderella version where two mean sisters mistreat the kind sister making her life distressing and miserable. In this story we learn that the rough face girl is given that name as the result of daily torture received by her hard hearted sisters.
Her sisters like in the traditional Cinderella tale are hateful and cruel and are disliked by the reader. The Rough Face girl similar Cinderella is empathized by the reader and wants her to find happiness. In this story the love of a very rich, powerful, handsome invisible man is sought after and only the person that can run into him will exist the one to ally him. The sisters dressed in beautiful clothing seek to meet the invisible homo and are turned downward after unsuccessfully passing the sisters exam to show they accept seen the invisible man. And then the Crude Face girl left with nothing simply big moccasins and a wearing apparel fabricated out of dead birch goes to meet the invisible human being and eventually marry just not before she takes a bathroom in the magical lake.
This story is beautifully told keeping the authentic theme of Cinderella and the Native American folktale. You can come across the similarities of the tradicional Cinderella, the mean sister and the lovable girl. Like the traditional Cinderella in that location is a marriage but Rough Face girl carries more of mystical side with a past more darkness which can exist portrayed by the dark colores used. t'southward illustrations are like paintings that respectfully represent the Native American culture and allow the reader to take a glimpse of the fourth dimension and village the story took place without overpowering the story.
This story tin be used for 2 grades and to a higher place. The complexity of this story may be to confusing for younger students to understand. This can be used to teach students about authors lesson and how pretty clothing and hair tin hide a bad heart.
In the classroom, I would utilize this volume as a read aloud considering it is a motion-picture show volume short enough to read during class fourth dimension, but complex enough to incorporate deeper comprehension strategies. My start idea of how this book can exist used in the classroom instructionally is integrating information technology with the social studies curriculum. Since social studies does not accept very much allotted time, incorporating didactics well-nigh civilisation and indigenous American Indian groups, which are both aligned with NC Social Studies standards. Having students record observations from the book well-nigh Native American dress, values, traditions, etc. (pg. 6 describes some) (after the class has read the text and then discussing it can permit the teacher to introduce of import social studies aspects while besides building students' fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. The text structures and genre of Folklore can exist discussed here as well, as many ethnic groups take potent, meaningful legends like this one.
A second instructional thought for using this book is to cease and inquire questions during the read aloud that reinforces students' learning and reading comprehension. Some question ideas may include:
(Pg. 2-3) Look at the drawings on the wigwam in this picture (define the word wigwam=home for Algonquin Indians). What do you detect? What do you remember these tell u.s.?
(Pg. 9) Allow's make some predictions. What do you think is going to happen with these two girls? Why do you lot think they're lying?
(Pg. 16) How is the Rough-Face up girl unlike from her two sisters? Where do you see this in the text?
(Towards end of book) Remember the drawings on the wigwam. How practise we see these with the Invisible Existence?
A third activity I would like to implement is reading a diverseness of other versions of Cinderella and so comparing them. This could be other cultural versions and folklores, but students can compare main characters, plots and key details. They could practice a writing response, graphic organizer, story map or grouping project.
...more than The Rough-Face Daughter is a wonderful picture book due to its artistic but constructive life lesson also as traditional Cinderella type story. This books reveals the how there are consequences not treating others nicely as shown with the 2 sisters who made the third sister go on to the fire to the extent that the burn down charred and burnt her skin. In addition, it goes to bear witness that you are more probable to be Puffin Books, 1998, 32 pgs., Genre: Fiction, Grade level: 1-five, GR level: Due south, Lexile level: 540L
The Crude-Face Girl is a wonderful picture book due to its creative just effective life lesson likewise equally traditional Cinderella type story. This books reveals the how at that place are consequences not treating others nicely every bit shown with the two sisters who made the third sister keep to the fire to the extent that the fire charred and burnt her skin. In addition, information technology goes to show that yous are more likely to exist happier with what you accept achieved when yous are caring towards others. This is told through the story through an invisible human that is wanted by everyone in the village. He lives with no one just his sis who explains that whoever tin can run across him can ally him who just the rough faced girl could see.
Teaching ideas:
This is a picture volume that should be taught and talked near. It would work well for a read aloud for a whole class in the elementary historic period group setting. Y'all can easily create a lesson on being kind, caring, and honest to keep with this story. For this book, I would teach a lesson on being kind to others using the relationships betwixt the Crude-Face Girl and her older sisters. Upon reading the book, I would give students a few different options for a writing prompt. An example would be to compare and dissimilarity the Disney Cinderella they are accustomed to in addition this Cinderella type story. Another prompt pick would be to explain why they believed the Crude-Face Girl was the i chosen to see the Invisible Being rather than any of the other girls in the hamlet.

Summary: In a village, there was an invisible being who every woman wanted to marry, simply they could simply ally him if they saw him. After numerous women who fancied themselves up merely nonetheless failed at seeing details, or the existence at all, a girl with scars, messy hair, and former raggedy clothes was able to run into the invisible being and her dazzler was restored, and she married the beingness.
a. The protagonist and adversary characters are described completely different from 1 some other. Their characteristics are highly assorted in social club to emphasize one's pureness, and the others wickedness.
b. I am familiar with the American and European stories of Cinderella with the evil stepsisters who abused her, and the evil stepmother who tried to continue her from going to the ball. I hadn't heard this native tribe version earlier.
c. I would use this story for storytelling to both a child and to a group. Information technology'd be a bang-up bedtime story, simply it tin can likewise be fun to tell a group of children, like about princess stories are told today through movies and books to the masses.

Educational activity Point
This volume would exist a corking book to apply in first-grade when teaching folktales. We could read the classic Cinderella and The Rough-Face Girl and compare and dissimilarity the similarities and differences. They tin can too encounter if they are able to discern the same moral out of each story.

I think the reason she can encounter the invisible man and no one else can is because she sees beauty within and non superficially. She sees the human being spiritually and in nature.
I love the emphasis on beauty
I loved it! ❤️ It was beautiful. This is so much improve than many other versions of Cinderella. In the original Cinderella, she was named after Cinders because she was dirty and I do believe she was really slightly disfigured from the fire and cinders. I like that this version keeps that chemical element.I think the reason she tin can see the invisible homo and no one else can is because she sees beauty inside and not superficially. She sees the man spiritually and in nature.
I dear the accent on dazzler within. And the accent on beauty every bit a spiritual affair rather than physical. Because how tin one be beautiful if a 1 has an ugly heart?!
After all, one tin only be beautiful if they are equally beautiful on the inside every bit they are on the outside.

Of all the Cinderella stories I have read or heard, The Crude-Face Girl, based on an Algonquin Indian tale, is one of my favorites.It earns that distinction for the variation it takes on the theme, depicting the "Cinderella" grapheme to actually have physically scars--tell-tale signs of cinders--on her aspect. This is in contrast to others, including the Disney version, that cast Cinderella every bit a victim of servitude or ill-volition, though non actual impairment. Equally a result, you are immediately sympathetic to the Rough-Confront Girl and are pulling for her, not simply to 'get the guy,' but to be recognized for her goodness, her beauty of personality and heart.
I also notice the picture book superior for its dramatic illustrations drawn by David Shannon, following in the mold of Run into, rather than No, David!.
Definitely perfect for a fairy tale comparison written report, or simply to bask every bit a read aloud. Lovely, lovely.
