		The Beautifull Cassandra is a delightful story about a pleasure-loving young female who falls in love with a bonnet and braves the world.
		Juliet McMaster now brings The Beautifull Cassandra to us as a picture book, envisaging the characters as small animals in eighteenth-century clothing, in the manner of Beatrix Potter.
		As a mouse in a splendid bonnet, the beautiful Cassandra is likely to win the hearts of children who have never heard of Jane Austen, as well as of adults who have long admired her great novels, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and the rest.

	JASA: Extracts from Sensibilities, June 2003
		'It weighs in at just over two thousand three hundred words' (vii) - that is, about eleven pages in the Chapman edition of the Minor Works, chapter breaks and all: longer than the highly concentrated Beautifull Cassandra, but much shorter than Love and Freindship, Catharine, or even Jack and Alice.
		Some might think that a slender tale - slender in size, that is, but not (I assure you) in significant content - calls for minimal illustration.
		Not I. The slenderer the text, so goes my principle, the larger, not to say obeser, is the illustrator's opportunity: so that my illustrations loom larger in this volume than in any other I have illustrated since The Beautifull Cassandra.
