CinderellaOnce upon a time, there was a beautiful girl called Cinderella. Cinderella lived with her wicked stepmother and her two lazy stepsisters. Cinderella's stepsisters spent their days playing games and eating sweets, but Cinderella. never had time for fun and games because her stepmother made her clean the house from top to bottom every day. Cinderella thought it was very unfair that she had to do all the housework while her stepsisters did nothing, especially when they laughed at her and called her names while she was working.As Cinderella was mopping the kitchen floor one day, there was a loud knock at the front door. Her stepmother answered it and Cinderella heard her talking excitedly to the visitor. As soon as the front door closed, Cinderella's stepmother and her two stepsisters barged into the kitchen, all talking and laughing at the top of their voices.I can't believe the prince's ball is tonight! exclaimed one stepsister. We'd better start getting ready right away.You're right! said the other. We need to make sure we're looking our best so that he picks one of us to be his princess. I'm sure he's going to pick me.Cinderella! barked her stepmother. What are you waiting for? Help your stepsisters to get their dresses ready. While we're out, I want you to clean this kitchen again and make sure you do it properly this time. This floor is filthy!Later that evening, after the others had left for the ball, Cinderella sat down by the fire with a sigh. She would love to go to the ball too,
