"I hate you," said Cinderella. "I wish you were dead."
"Don't be so ungrateful," said her stepmother. "If it weren't for me, you would be living in the streets."
"I don't care," said Cinderella. "I hate you anyway."

"You're so lucky," said Cinderella's stepsisters. "You get to stay home all day while we have to go to work."
"I know," said Cinderella. "It's not fair."
"Life's not fair," said her stepsisters. "You should be grateful for what you have."

Every day, Cinderella had to do all the chores in the house. She cooked and cleaned and washed the clothes. She was so tired all the time that she could barely stand up.

One day, a letter arrived for Cinderella. It was an invitation to the ball!
"You must be joking," said her stepmother. "You're not going to the ball."
"But why not?" asked Cinderella.
"Because you're not pretty enough," said her stepmother. "Now get back to work."

Cinderella was so sad that she didn't think she could go on. But then she had an idea. She went into the forest and found a magical creature who gave her a beautiful dress.
When she arrived at the ball, everyone was amazed by her beauty. The prince fell in love with her at once.

But then, at midnight, Cinderella had to leave. She ran out of the palace and left her glass slipper behind.
The prince searched all over the kingdom for her, but he could not find her.

Cinderella's stepsisters tried on the glass slipper, but it didn't fit. Then Cinderella tried it on, and it fit perfectly.
She married the prince and they lived happily ever after. The end.
