Cinderella


Cinderella sees beautiful things in her daydreams, and tries to live her little, starved life in a way to deserve them. Her stepmother and sisters catch her idling, and tear up the dress she has made from their discarded ones. After they have departed for the Prince's ball, the Fairy Godmother appears, provides Cinderella with a dress which puts her sisters' glamourous gowns to shame, and sends her off to the ball in a golden coach. At the ball she captivates the Prince, but stays too long, loses her slipper, and escapes pursuit only after a breathless chase. Next day, when the Prince comes looking for his lost Princess, he tries the slipper on both step-sisters, each trying vainly to get it on, and is ready to leave before he discovers his Princess.
