I think I'm going to have to read that one...Here's the summary...
"In a novel based on Chinese Cinderella tales, fourteen-year-old stepchild Xing-Xing endures a life of neglect and servitude, as her stepmother cruelly mutilates her own child's feet so that she alone might marry well." It's by Donna Jo Napoli.
