Prince Charming
The King and his Duke
Animals: Gus and other mice, Lucifer the cat, Bruno her dog, birds......
If you listen carefully (in the Disney movie), when the Duke is reading the declaration just before he fits the slippers on the stepsisters, you can hear him call the prince "Prince Vladimir". It's said quickly, but he says it.
Effort includes hard work, determination, struggle, and perseverance. There are many other words that describe effort, including push, battle, and force.
the exposition of the story is that the fisher man and is wife have every thing that they need but they just want a child
Cinderella wants to go to the ball because, really, isn't dressing up and acting like a princess any girls dream?
Cinderella has two step-sisters. Their names are Anastasia and Drizella.
'Snow White and Rose Red', by Patricia Wrede, 'Birdwing', 'Mira,Mirror', 'The Goose-Girl' by Shannon Hale, 'East', 'Briar Rose' by Jane Yolen 'Beauty' by Robin Mckinley, 'Rose Daughter' By Robin Mckinley, 'Deerskin', by Robin Mckinley "the doorr inthe hedge' by same, 'A Knot in the Grain and other stories' by same, and many, many others that I don't know or remember. But I think you'd like 'Searching for Delicious' by Natalie Babbitt, 'The Tale of Despereaux' by Kate DiCamillo, 'Gifts' by Ursula K. Guin. I did, and I, too, am searching for fairytales, and some of the books I listed, I found on a list!
Well Cinderella's shoe was uncaracteristically small and the king wanted his son to get married, so they did the test thinking that only one girl could possible have that small of feet.
The whole glass thing came from a mix up in words. Charles Perrault wrote the familiar version of the story in the 17th century and at the time squirrel fur (whcih is what he wrote)was called "Vair". Unfortunetly "Verre" meant glass. In the earliest writings from ancient china there is no mention of glass or squirrel fur; gold thread with solid gold soles is fairly popular.
Carl Spackler.
(That's from Caddyshack, by the way; Carl is the Bill Murray character, and the only one who refers to him as Cinderella is Carl. In real life, lots of golfers have been called "Cinderellas" who "came outta nowhere" to win a tournament no one expected them to have any chance at ... Y.E. Yang in 2009, Ben Curtis and Shaun Michael in 2003, John Daly in 1991, Larry Mize in 1987, Jack Nicklaus in 1986 ... he hadn't won a majors tournament in years and everyone thought he was past his prime, Orville Moody in 1969, Francis Ouimet in 1913).
Scholars are able to trace the origins of "Cinderella" back to a 9th-century Chinese foot binding story called "Ye-Xian".
Ohhh yes. Anything Disney is copyrighted.
The basic character and story of Cinderella was first recorded in the 16th century, and as such is in the public domain. However, as the first answer implies, contemporary interpretations of the story are usually protected.
No. The story is an old, old folktale found in many variations in many cultures. There was no real Cinderella.
Fiction. (make believe) I get them confused sometimes myself. Just remember 'science fiction' to differentiate fiction from non fiction.* its fiction read the book are there fairys in real life.
Cinderella has to be home before midnight, or else the spell will break and she will be exposed to the Prince, but she stays at the ball until it's almost curfew!
"Some Day My Prince Will Come"
(feat. Andrew Seeley)
Someday I will find my prince
He may be far away
But I know he will come
Someday
Prince of my dreams
Far away
To call my own
Someday
Prince of my dreams
Far away
To call my own
Someday
Someday my prince will come
Someday I'll find a love
And how thrilling that moment will be
When the prince of my dreams comes to me
He'll whisper I love you (I love you)
And steal a kiss or two (Just one kiss)
Though he may be far away
I will find my love someday
Someday we'll say and do
The things we've been longing to
And I'll know him the moment we meet
For my heart will start skipping a beat
Someday when my dreams come true
Somewhere waiting for me
There's someone I'm longing to see
Someone I can't help but adore
Who will thrill me for ever more?
Someday we'll say and do
The things we've been longing to
And I'll know him the moment we meet
For my heart will start skipping a beat
Someday when my dreams come true
Someday my prince will come (Someday my princess will come)
And I will find my love (And I will find my love)
And I'll know it the moment we meet (The moment we meet)
Prince of my dreams
Far away
To call my own
Someday
Prince of my dreams
Far away
To call my own
Someday
Prince of my dreams
Far away
To call my own
Someday
Prince of my dreams (Prince of her dreams)
Far away (Far away)
To call my own (To call your own)
Someday (Someday)
Prince of my dreams (Prince of her dreams)
Far away (Far away)
To call my own (To call your own)
Someday (My dreams will come true)
Prince of my dreams (Prince of her dreams)
Far away (Far away)
To call my own (Call your own)
Someday
