Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Julia Gousseva has been writing since she was a little girl in Moscow, Russia, when her grandmother gave her an old leather-bound journal with yellowed pages. The first half of the journal was filled with stories and poems that her grandmother wrote when she was still in school. “Now, it’s your turn to continue writing stories,” she said.

Years later, Julia revised and published some of the stories she wrote in that journal as "Twelve Months of a Soviet Childhood," a collection of short stories that portray a magical and innocent time oblivious to political regimes and problems. Her grandmother, a typical Russian babushka, is a prominent character in the book. Babushka is taking care of children, of her beloved red roses, and is proper in all respects. Thus, when the two little girls in her care end up in a precarious situation in the middle of Gorky Park, babushka has to compose herself before taking decisive action.

Julia was born and raised in Russia when it was still a part of the Soviet Union, and even today Russia remains a mystery not only to the West, but to its own people as well. Julia’s history professors referred to Russia as a country with unpredictable past because every time a new leader came to power, all history books were revised and rewritten. Many of Julia’s stories are set against the backdrop of Russia’s dramatic history.

In addition to being a writer, Julia teaches a variety of critical thinking, critical reading, and writing classes. She loves Russian literature, especially Russian folklore and its unique characters: Baba Yaga the Russian Witch, the magical Firebird, Leshi the Woodsprite, and many others. To help today’s kids enjoy the ancient wisdom of Russian fairy-tales, Julia wrote Adventures of Alex and Katie series where two American kids travel into the world of Russian fairy-tales through a magical fireplace.

Julia and her family live in the American Southwest.

    This retelling of the classic Cinderella tale featuring Alex and Katie is delightful. I’ve read this author before and she has a magic with words that enables her to weave an enchanting story. Cinderella and Her Prince: Adventure Five (Adventures of Alex and Katie Book 5) by Julia Gousseva is no exception. From the opening pages there is excitement, planning a surprise and soon the magic painting . . . I highly recommended this and all the books in the series. Five stars.

    Another superb instalment in the Alex and Katie series as they enter bizarre worlds through a picture frame. This time Julia Gousseva gives us the tale of Cinderella and her own spin on it. It's an exciting adventure yet again as Alex and Katie try to help Cinders find her prince. Well-written with beautiful descriptions. A sure hit with your slugs.

    A delightful series starring Alex and Katie who have the wonderful ability of being in the right place at the right time, in this case in the middle of the Cinderella fairytale. They also have the ability to solve mysteries in a way I wish my children were able. I might then finally find my TV remote.

    A delightfully well-written children's book, Cinderella and her Prince is one that should be enjoyed by anyone who appreciates fairy tales. While it is book five of a series, this story can be read as a stand alone adventure.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Twist on the Traditional Fairy Tale!
    Reviewed in the United States on 14 November 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I absolutely love this book--and this series! Alex and Katie are two kids who have the ability to travel through a magical painting and into vivid fairytale lands. This time, their mission is to help Cinderella to find her missing prince, reverse a spell, and live happily ever after once and for all. In the process, they must call upon unusual friends, venture into dangerous territory, and solve a mystery.

    I was spellbound from start to finish. Author Julia Gousseva does an excellent job of bringing the colorful cast of characters to life, and I love her spin on the traditional fairy tale. The book is paced perfectly to hold the attention of young readers, challenging them to think outside the box and allowing their imaginations to thrive.

    I would recommend this book and this series to any young person--or person who is young at heart--who likes fairytales and fantasy books. It's a great one!

    I'm a true fan of the new TV series "Once upon a time" because they put new spins on fairy tales. It's because of this that I liked Cinderalla and Her Prince: Adventure Five. I love reading about the adventures of Alex and Katie as they help Cinderella. Great story telling and what a great behind the scenes look into the Cinderella story.
