As we all know, the tale is about a girl who is badly treated by her stepmother and stepsisters. She was made to do all the chores. Finally, She is rescued by her fairy godmother, and is married to a handsome prince. The story was first told by the Chinese in the ninth century. Its Chinese origins are shown by the episode of the glass slipper that the prince can fit only on Cinderella’s tiny, delicate feet, which were a mark of special beauty for Chinese women at that particular time. Cinderella’s story still fascinates us today, although we do not remain so fascinated by small feet. In Europe, and the United States alone, the tale exists in over 500 versions down to this day.
