FAIRY & CINDERELLA
Select & Ctrl+P to Print
As soon as the fairy waved her hand, the pumpkins became a coach and the six white
mice became ponies. It was now time for Cinderella to leave for the Royal Palace where the
ball was to be held. She was a bit nervous. The two ugly sisters had gone on ahead, not
dreaming that Cinderella would follow. They thought that she would be sitting sadly at
home or doing the cleaning.
When Cinderella walked down the marble staircase, the Prince's eyes opened wide in
surprise. Never had he seen such a beautiful damsel. He crossed the ballroom and bowing
low before her, he asked her to dance with him. The band struck up the tune. The handsome
Prince and the beautiful maiden waltzed happily round the room, while the onlookers gazed
in wonder. Whoever could this be who had stolen the heart of their Prince Charming?
