Cinderella
Once upon a time there was a beautiful girl called Cinderella and she
had two ugly step sisters who were very unkind who made her do all the hard
work. She had to sweep the floors, do all the dishes, while they dressed up in
fine clothes and went to lots of parties.
One day a special invitation arrived at Cinderella's house. It was from
the royal palace. The king's only son was a truly handsome prince was going to
have a grand ball. Three girls were invited to come. Cinderella knew she
wouldn't be allowed to go to the ball. But the ugly sisters, ho ho ho, they
were excited. They couldn't talk about anything else.
When the day of the ball came, they made such a fuss. Poor Cinderella
had to rush about upstairs and downstairs. She fixed their hair in fancy waves
and curls. She helped them put on their expensive new dresses. And she arranged
their jewels just so. As soon as they had gone, Cinderella sat down by the fire
and she said. "Oh I do wish I could go to the ball". The next moment,
standing beside her was a lovely old lady with a silver wand in here hand.
"Cinderella, she said " I am your fairy godmother and you shall go to
the ball. But first you must go into the garden and pick a golden pumpkin, then
bring me six mice from the mousetraps, a whiskered rat from the rat trap, and
six lizards. You'll find the lizards behind the watering can.
