Hello, everyone. I hope you're all having a good day. I was just talking with a new friend, and she made me want to do 'that' again... By which I mean, share fairy tales! My home has so many fairy tales, and I love telling them to others. So if you'd like to hear one, just say so, and I'll spin a story with you!

He did, but Cinderella thought he wouldn't love her if he found out she was just a poor girl.

The step-family came home to find Cinderella cleaning, and nothing more was thought of it. However, a mere few days later, there was a great announcement throughout the entire kingdom. The Prince was going to every woman in the kingdom, and seeing if the left behind glass slipper fit them. If it did, they would be his bride, for he had fallen in love with the mysterious dancer. Knowing it would fit her, Cinderella abandoned her chores, wanting to tidy herself up for the Prince. But the Step-mother managed to connect the dots, and when Cinderella wasn't looking, she locked the poor dear up in her room.

Cinderella tried and tried to escape, but it was no use.

The prince and his men arrived at Cinderella's house, and began to try the slipper on the step-sister's feet. Of course it didn't fit them, but while they were distracted, the animal friends found Cinderella's locked room, and managed to find the key and free her. She ran down the stairs, asking to try on the slipper. The Step-mother said she was just a maid, but the prince's servants insisted... after all, they were supposed to try it on every maiden. But as the servant with the slipper approached, the Step-mother stuck out her foot to trip him, and when he fell, the slipper was smashed to bits. If her daughters couldn't be princesses, she would never let Cinderella be one!

Well, Cinderella just smiled, and said it was all right... for she had the other slipper, and she put it on for everyone to see. The prince recognized her as his mystery dancer, and he took her away from the horrible stepfamily. They were married, and her animal friends were allowed to live in the palace with her. They all lived happily ever after.

[ Applause ] I'm glad that Cinderella was able to get out of there. She had far more patience than most.

And thank you very much for the story.

Sometimes patience can help you towards the best rewards.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I love to share stories, and seeing happy faces like yours is why.
