Cinderella

What is the Real Story?

Do you know the real story of Cinderella?

Probably the version you are most familiar with is the one written by Charles Perrault and animated and adapted by Walt Disney. However hundreds of versions exist and nearly every country of the world has their own version of this classic tale.

Often these tales are written from the narrator’s point of view or third person. But what if the story were told first hand by one of the characters? How would the story be different? Does point of view really make a difference?

We decided to uncover these answers by putting ourselves in each character’s shoes and retelling the story from their point of view.

As you read our stories, consider how the story changes and how it affects you, the reader. Are any of the characters more convincing than the others? Did your opinion change about one or more of the characters ? Looking at a story from a new perspective can change everything.

We hope you enjoy reading our interpretations of this classic tale and encourage you to complete our survey once you are finished. Thank you for visiting.
