0:04 Cinderella's story. Once upon a time in
0:08 a land far, far away lived a beautiful
0:11 girl named Cinderella. After
0:13 Cinderella's kind mother died, her
0:17 father married Lady Puffy. Lady Puffy
0:20 had two arrogant, jealous, and
0:23 quarrelome daughters. Just like herself,
0:26 they would fight for hours, even over
0:29 something as simple as a hairbrush. One
0:33 day, Cinderella's father had to take a
0:36 long journey. Lady Puffy took this
0:39 chance to give all the hard work in the
0:43 house to poor Cinderella, cleaning the
0:45 whole house, carrying wood to the
0:49 fireplace and preparing meals took up
0:52 all of Cinderella's time. Despite her
0:55 hard work, Lady Puffy and her daughters
0:59 were cruel and proud.
1:02 Out of her small window, she looked down
1:05 to the garden and from time to time she
1:09 would talk to a snow white pigeon. The
1:12 next morning, Cinderella went to the
1:15 kitchen without making any noise.
1:18 Cinderella silently took some pieces of
1:21 cheese and headed to the
1:25 attic. But then Lady Puffy's daughters
1:29 caught her. Mom, Cinderella is stealing
1:33 our food. I'm stealing. I would never
1:36 steal anything. A thief and a liar. What
1:40 an evil girl you are. The little mice
1:43 went downstairs and started to run
1:46 around the kitchen to scare the evil
1:49 sisters. Lady Puffy was just about to
1:53 catch the mice when the doorbell rang.
1:56 The royal ambassador arrived.
1:58 His majesty, the royal prince has
2:00 prepared a grand ball at the castle tomorrow
2:02 tomorrow
2:04 night. All the young ladies around the
2:07 country are invited to this ball.
2:10 Jezebel and Cassandra ran with huge
2:13 excitement to their rooms and started to
2:15 pick dresses for this important evening.
2:18 Also, Lady Puffy wanted her daughters to
2:21 look beautiful. So, the evil stepsisters
2:24 forced Cinderella to prepare beautiful
2:28 ball dresses for them. The next day
2:30 arrived. If you can pick up the beans
2:33 out of the ashes and put them back into
2:36 the bowl within 5 minutes, you can come
2:38 to the bowl with us. Cinderella wanted
2:41 to go to the ball so much that she began
2:44 to pick up the beans. Her little friends
2:48 saw her situation and came to help.
2:50 Within five minutes, they picked up all
2:53 the beans and put them back into the
2:56 bowl. Cinderella ran after Lady Puffy,
2:59 who was already leaving, and showed the
3:02 full bowl to her. Lady Puffy still did
3:04 not want Cinderella to go to the ball.
3:07 So, this time she used Cinderella's
3:11 dirty dress as an excuse, and they left
3:14 Cinderella. Poor Cinderella was very
3:17 sad. She sat down in the garden and wept
3:20 and cried right under a hazelnut tree
3:24 that her mother had planted long ago.
3:27 And just then, the hazelnut tree began
3:31 to shake and to shine. And a beautiful
3:34 fairy appeared in front of Cinderella.
3:37 My name is Leabel and I am here to help
3:41 you. Don't be sad. You will go to that
3:44 ball as well. How am I supposed to go to
3:48 the ball like this? Leave that to me. H
3:51 I just need a pumpkin. The other things
3:54 I need are already here. Cinderella came
3:57 back holding a pumpkin in her hands.
4:00 Fairy Leabel began to wave her magic
4:03 wand around and turned the pumpkin into
4:06 a beautiful coach, the mice into very
4:09 nice horses, and the pigeon into a
4:12 welldressed coach driver. Cinderella
4:16 couldn't believe what she saw. But how
4:19 did you do this, Leabelle, the fairy
4:21 waved her magic wand
4:24 again and put Cinder Bella in a
4:26 beautiful blue
4:30 dress. On her feet appeared sparkling glass
4:31 glass
4:34 slippers. "I look like a princess now.
4:37 Thank you, Leabel. Now it's time for you
4:40 to go to the ball. Hurry up." The fairy
4:43 warned Cinderella before she headed to
4:47 the ball. "But don't forget, you need to
4:49 be back at midnight, or else the magic
4:52 will be gone and everything will be as
4:55 it was before." Cinderella listened to
4:58 the fairy carefully and finally headed
5:00 to the
5:03 castle. The pumpkin coach stopped in
5:05 front of the big castle.
5:08 Cinderella with her overwhelming beauty
5:10 entered the
5:13 castle. The guests of the ball saw
5:16 Cinderella and wondered who this
5:19 beautiful young lady was. Prince Leo
5:22 moved towards Cinderella and fell in
5:29 Beautiful young lady, may I have this
5:40 Cinderella was mesmerized by the magical
5:42 dance with Prince
5:46 Leo so that she forgot about the
5:49 time. When the clock was just about to
5:53 strike 12, she remembered the fair's
5:55 warning. You need to be back at midnight
5:59 or else. Cinderella left the prince back
6:02 and ran out of the castle quickly. Where
6:04 are you going? I don't even know your name.
6:06 name.
6:08 Cinderella ran down the castle's stairs
6:11 and all of a sudden lost one of her
6:14 glass slippers. Unfortunately, she did
6:16 not have time to go back and take it.
6:19 So, she ran to the coach as fast as she
6:22 could and left the castle. Find the
6:25 beautiful owner of this lost slipper. If
6:27 necessary, every girl in the country
6:30 shall try on this shoe. Cinderella went
6:32 back to her room in the attic. She
6:34 thought about the magical night she had
6:36 had with Prince Leo and realized that
6:39 she fell in love. But it seemed to be
6:40 impossible that the prince would
6:43 recognize her with her old dirty
6:47 clothes. Time passed and the prince had
6:50 a huge mansion built next to the castle
6:53 for the precious glass slipper. All the
6:56 young girls living in the next country
6:58 visited this place to try the slipper on.
6:59 on. [Music]

7:05 Even Lady Puffy and her daughters
7:08 visited the famous mansion, but did not
7:09 take Cinderella with [Music]
7:11 [Music]
7:14 them. But I also am a young girl living
7:16 in this country. I have the right to try
7:20 on the shoe as well. Lady Puffy did not
7:22 even listen to Cinderella. She locked
7:25 her up in the house and left with her
7:28 daughters. Of course, the glass slippers
7:31 did neither fit to Cassandra's feet nor to
7:32 to
7:35 Jezebel's. At nighttime, when the
7:37 mansion's lights were sparkling,
7:40 Cinderella made it out of the house. She
7:43 arrived at the majestic mansion and
7:45 walked towards the sparkling glass
7:47 slipper. As she was just about to try on
7:50 the shoe, Prince Leo stepped into the
7:53 room. Stop. Don't move. You're going to
7:57 damage the shoe. No. No, no, it's my
8:00 shoe. It fits me perfectly. Cinderella
8:04 courageously put on the shoe in front of
8:07 Prince Leo, and he realized that the
8:11 shoe fits perfectly to Cinderella. You
8:13 are the beautiful girl I danced with on
8:16 that night. May I know your name?
8:20 My name is Cinderella, your highness.
8:23 Will you marry me, Cinderella?
8:25 Cinderella happily said yes to the
8:29 prince whom she fell in love with. They
8:33 got married in the big castle and lived
8:36 happily ever after. [Music]
