介绍:
Once upon a time there lived a sweet girl named Cinderella. She lived with her mean stepmother and her 2 evil stepsisters and she had to do all the chores in the house.
Cinderella, have you finished sweeping the floor yet?
Almost.
Cinderella have you ironed my dress yet?
I’ll do it soon.
Hurry, I haven’t got all day to wait. Cinderella have you cleaned up my room yet? Yes, I finished it 5 minutes ago.
Cinderella was very tired from all her chores, but she was still nice and smiled often. One day an invitation came in the mail. It was from the king. He invited everybody in the kingdom to come to a ball where he hoped to find a wife for his son, the prince.
Girls, girls. Look, here is an invitation from the king. We must go to the ball and you must wear your prettiest dresses. One of you must marry the prince. Cinderella, come here quickly. You will sew 3 beautiful dresses for us so that we will look great when we go to the ball.
Shouldn’t I make 4 dresses, one for me too? The invitation says everyone can go.
The stepmother and stepsisters started laughing loudly.
You, come to the ball. What a joke!
Cinderella, you are so silly! You can’t come to the ball. Of course the prince isn’t going to choose you to marry!
Cinderella was very sad to hear this, but she made the 3 dresses anyway. On the night of the ball the stepmother and stepsisters wore their beautiful dresses and went to the palace. Cinderella went back to her tiny room and cried. Suddenly she heard a voice.
Cinderella dear, don’t cry. I can help you. I’m your fairy godmother.
Really? What can you do?
Please go fetch a pumpkin and 6 mice and I’ll show you.
Cinderella quickly dried her tears and did as she was asked.
Perfect.
The fairy godmother waved her wand 3 times. The first time she turned Cinderella’s rags into a beautiful gown and gave her glass slippers to wear. The second time she turned the pumpkin into a coach and the 3rd time she turned the mice into footmen. Cinderella couldn’t believe it.
Now, hurry off to the ball. You must be back by midnight. Don’t forget. At midnight everything turns back to the way it was before.
I won’t forget. Thank you so much.
The coach took Cinderella to the ball. The prince saw her right away and whispered to himself.
Wow. That is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.
The prince quickly walked over to Cinderella. Will you dance with me?
Of course.
Cinderella and the prince danced, talked and laughed all night. Suddenly Cinderella heard the clock strike midnight.
Oh no, I have to go. I’m sorry. Goodnight. What, why are you going?
Cinderella didn’t have time to answer. She ran out of the palace. She was in such a hurry that she lost one of her glass slippers. She ran all the way home in her dirty clothes. A few minutes later her stepmother and stepsisters came home.
I’m sorry to say girls, I think the prince is going to marry that beautiful princess who mysteriously arrived in the middle of the ball.
Yes, I think you’re right.
Oh well. It was still fun to wear these gorgeous clothes. Cinderella, make sure you hang up our dresses properly.
Cinderella was still thinking about the prince but answered quickly from her room.
Yes, of course I will.
The next day the prince was still thinking about Cinderella. He wanted to marry her but didn’t know how to find her. Suddenly one of his servants brought him the glass slipper that Cinderella had lost. The prince took it in his hands.
This is her slipper. I know. I will ask every girl in the kingdom to try on this slipper. The one it fits is my princess!
The prince quickly got into his coach to start his search. He kept trying the slipper on every girl’s foot but it didn’t fit any of them. Finally he arrived at Cinderella’s house.
Oh hello prince. We heard you are trying on that slipper on every girl’s foot and will marry the one it fits.
Yes, that’s right.
Here is my foot. It will fit me. But it didn’t.
Here is my foot. It will fit me. But it didn’t.
Well, goodbye. I’ll try next door.
But just as he was leaving Cinderella came downstairs.
Can I try it? I think it will fit me.
The stepmother and the stepsisters started to laugh loudly.
Stepmother and stepsisters: It’ll never fit you. You didn’t go to the ball.
But of course it did fit Cinderella.
Stepmother and stepsisters: What! I can’t believe it!
The prince and Cinderella got married and lived happily ever after. The stepmother and the
stepsisters had to do all the chores themselves from then on.
