A Modern Cinderella (1913)

A modern re-telling of the Cinderella story. Marilla is a careworn and harassed nursemaid (even though she is only a child herself). With her sweet nature and her helpful ways, she is unlikely to escape a life of servitude. But the unexpected happens…

Born and raised in New York City, where she attended the City Institute, Amanda Minnie Douglas had planned to study engraving and design at the Cooper Institute. When a family crisis intervened, she gave up that idea, turning her attention to writing. A prolific author whose short stories were printed in periodicals like the Saturday Evening Post, New York Ledger, and Lady's Friend, Douglas also published many novels, particularly for young readers.

Her "A Little Girl" series was one of the first examples of historical fiction for girls, while her Helen Grant books fall into the "college girl" genre that became so popular at the turn of the 19th/20th centuries. Her Kathie's Stories series - the first that she published - is a fairly typical example of 19th-century didactic moralism.

Douglas passed most of her adult life in Newark, New Jersey, where she was active in literary organization like the Ray Palmer Club and the New Jersey Women's Press Club.
