Zombierella digital pack from Walker Books

And she died happily ever after…

Crawl out of the grave and step into your mushroom carriage for Zombierella: Fairytales Gone Bad, the first in a funny, deliciously dark, three-part series of twisted classics, written in verse by award-winning poet Joseph Coelho and illustrated by Freya Hartas.

A yellow moon hangs in a satin sky the night Cinderella, barefoot and in hand-me-downs, slips at the top of the stairs … and dies. But not for long. The Shadow of Death arrives to breathe life back into her bones and, for three nights only, Cinderella goes forth as ZOMBIERELLA. With her skin as cold as ice and her faithful horse Lumpkin back by her side, can she seek revenge on her three cruel, fake sisters, once and for all?

Celebrate National Poetry Day with this haunting and humorous adventure of the undead girl searching for her happily ever after with our spook-tastic digital pack which includes the following:
Zombierella:Fairytales Gone Bad events poster – downloadable PDF
Acitivity pack – downloadble PDF
Downloadable chapter sampler
Teacher’s notes – downloadable PDF
