Long ago, in a land far away, there lived a beautiful young girl.

　　She was very sad. Her mother had died and her father had married again. His new wife had two ugly daughters, Esmerelda and Griselda.

　　Soon after, her father also died and life immediately changed for the girl.

　　"You will be our servant, "said her stepmother. "You will do everything we say."

　　"You must sleep in the kitchens, by the fire," said the stepsisters.

　　After tending the fire, and cooking and leaning, the girl"s clothes were very dirty. She was called to clear away dishes.

　　"There are cinders all over your clothes!" exclaimed the stepmother. "Cinders for Cinderella. That"s your new name. Clear these things away, Cinderella."

　　"Cinderella! Cinderella!" sang Esmerelda and Griselda. "Oh, how clever you are, Mama!"

　　Cinderella had to work very hard, as all the other servants were dismissed.

　　One day, an invitation arrived from the palace.

　　"Girls, listen to this," said the stepmother. Cinderella was serving the breakfast. She listened as her stepmother read the invitation.
