4. Once upon a time, there was a
troubled young girl. Her father had
remarried a wicked woman, who
had two revolting daughters. The
wicked stepmother showered her
two daughters in gold and
diamonds, but as for the poor
young girl, she had nothing. The
five of them lived on a council
estate and the young girl was made
to clean the house all day, every
day. They nicknamed her
Cinderella.
Picture always
on the right
hand side.

5. Cinderella spent
her free time
talking to the
animals, her
favourite pet mice.
Cinderella’s mice
always tell
Cinderella how
beautiful she is,
even though she
only has rags to
wear and her
stepsisters were
dressed in elegant
dresses. However
they would always
be more clumsy
and potbellied than
Cinderella would
ever be.

6. One stormy morning,
three pleasant dresses
arrived at the house.
The Prince was
holding a ball at the
palace that evening, to
find a suitable bride.
Cinderella daren’t ask
if she had got an
invite because her
stepsisters and step
mother would force
her to scrub the floors
again and make sure
everything was perfect
for when the wicked
trio arrived home.
After the ugly
stepsisters and
mother had gone to
the ball, Cinderella sat
and sobbed “I’m so
unhappy!”

7. Cinderella wept still, as she
thought about her stepsisters dancing with the
prince, the only man she ever
dreamed about. As
Cinderella went to wipe a
tear, a blue flashing
appeared and in the light
was a fairy godmother.
Cinderella whispered quietly
“Have I done something
wrong?” The fairy godmother
replied, “No dear, I am
sending you to the ball.”

8. The fairy godmother
smiled gently and asked
Cinderella to fetch her a
pumpkin and seven
mice.
In a flash, Cinderella
appeared with the
pumpkin and seven
mice, Cinderella placed
the items in front of the
fairy godmother.
The fairy godmother
then, waved her wand
and the pumpkin and
the mice turned into a
glorious horse and
carriage. Cinderella
gasped.

9. Cinderella then
asked “what about
my dress?”. Once
again, the fairy
godmother waved
her wand and
chanted “bibbity
bobbity boo” and
Cinderella’s rags
were turned into a
blue, sparkling,
flowing dress.
Cinderella felt so
excited and
surprised.

10. However, there was
one rule for
Cinderella, “You
must be home by
midnight” spoke
the fairy
godmother “after
midnight the magic
will fade and you
will return to your
rags.”
Cinderella
promised the fairy
godmother that
she would be home
by midnight and
climbed into the
carriage.
The fairy
godmother
watched as the
horses rode away,
pleased that
Cinderella’s dream
had come true.

11. As Cinderella walked into
the ball, the whole room
stopped to look at
Cinderella and the
beautiful dress she was
wearing. The Prince took
her hand and asked “May I
have this dance with you?”.
Cinderella danced with the
Prince all night and the
Prince replied “no” to
anyone who wanted to
dance.
Even Cinderella’s
stepsisters and wicked step
mother did not realise
Cinderella dancing with the
Prince.
However Cinderella did not
realise the time, and had to
rush away from the Prince.

12. In Cinderella’s rush, she
fled down the stairs and
left one of her glass
slippers behind.
Cinderella did manage to
get home in time and
went back to the
fireplace. The next day,
the prince and his father
went to every woman in
the village, asking if their
foot fitted the slipper.
Finally the Prince and his
father arrived at
Cinderella’s house. The
ugly stepsister
immediately ran to try
and fit into the shoe,
unfortunately for them
the shoe did not fit.

13. The Prince then called out
“Is there anybody else
living here?” Cinderella
tiptoed into the room, but
her stepmother tried to
shoo her away.
“No” shouted the Prince,
“Let her try on the shoe”.
The shoe slipped onto
Cinderella’s foot perfectly
and the Prince had found
his new bride.
Cinderella and the Prince
rode back, together in the
carriage and lived happily
ever after in the palace.
