Cinderella lives with her stepmother and two wicked stepsisters. She is forced to stay home from the ball and continue with her chores. A Fairy Godmother comes to her rescue and Cinderella is dressed and given a ride to the ball in a coach. At the ball she meets the prince and he falls in love with Cinderella. Cinderella has to leave abruptly as she has to be home by midnight or her beautiful clothes will turn into rags. As she rushes from the palace she loses one of her slippers. The prince goes from house to house looking for her and when she is the only one who fits the missing slipper the prince knows he has found the woman he met at the ball. They are married and live happily ever after.

About Charles Perrault

Charles Perrault was born in Paris on January 1628. Son of an upper-class burgeois family, he attended the best schools and became a lawyer in 1651. He wrote Parallels Between the Ancients and the Moderns, which compared the authors of antiquity unfavorably to modern writers, and became a member of the Academie Francaise in 1671.

His Stories or Tales from Times Past, with Morals: Tales of Mother Goose, published in 1697, gave him great popularity and opened up a new literary genre: fairy tales. Among his most famous versions of fairy tales are "Blue Beard," "Sleeping Beauty on the Woods," "Little Red Riding Hood," "The Master Cat or Puss in Boots," "Cinderella," "Little Thumb," and "Donkey Skin."
He died in Paris on May 1703.
