CINDERELLA STORY
ONCE UPON A TIME a girl named Cinderella lived with her stepmother and two
stepsisters. Poor Cinderella had to work hard all day long so the others could rest. It
was she who had to wake up each morning when it was still dark and cold to start
the fire. It was she who cooked the meals. It was she who kept the fire going. The
poor girl could not stay clean, from all the ashes and cinders by the fire.
“What a mess!” her two stepsisters laughed. And that is why they called her
“Cinderella.”
One day, big news came to town. The King and Queen were going to have a ball! It
was time for the Prince to find a bride. All of the young ladies in the land were invited
to come. They were wild with joy! They would wear their most beautiful gown and fix
their hair extra nice. Maybe the prince would like them!
At Cinderella’s house, she now had extra work to do. She had to make two
brand-new gowns for her step-sisters.
“Faster!” shouted one step-sister.
“You call that a dress?” screamed the other.
“Oh, dear!” said Cinderella. “When can I–“
The stepmother marched into the room. “When can you WHAT?”
“Well,” said the girl, “when will I have time to make my own dress for the ball?”
“You?” yelled the stepmother. “Who said YOU were going to the ball?”
“What a laugh!” said one step-sister.
“Such a mess!” They pointed at Cinderella. All of them laughed.
