Everyone has heard a story of Cinderella, a young beautiful girl who finds her happily ever after with a charming prince. Cinderella is truly an amazing story and in the world there is a vast amount of different versions. I have always been fascinated with this fairy tale. So I have decided to embark on an adventure and within my life become acquainted with 300 different accounts of the relatively same tale.

That Awful; Cinderella/Cinderella A Classic Tale by Dr. Alvin Granowsky

That Awful Cinderella By Dr. Alvin Granowsky

Cinderella A Classic Tale retold by Dr. Alvin Granowsky
These stories were fun to read. There were combined into one book showing the story Cinderella and the perspective of one of the evil step sisters Drusilla. The story called "That Awful Cinderella" cracked me up! It was the evil stepsister's point of view, and was quite cheesy. I had my niece read it and she said she still believed Cinderella was nice. Drusilla, the supposedly misunderstood step sister, told her story. Telling how Cinderella was gossiping, for that "awful" Cinderella was a plotter and planned to lose her shoe. Really the story just showed how evil Drusilla was while she tried to justify her actions.

On the flip side you learn Cinderella's common story. A girl named Cinderella who was envied by her step family. The steps treated her cruelly and made her do tedious tasks.... well you know the story. This story went into why she was called Cinderella more than most books. It also tells of all the hard work she did to help her sisters get ready for the ball. Another cool thing is that it explained the second ball. The prince put it on in hope of finding his princess again.
