In a great many of the older versions, for example those collected in Marian Cox's book of 345 Cinderella variants, the heroine had only one stepsister; and this girl was sometimes pretty (at least at the beginning of the story). It is hard to see any clear moral superiority of Cinderella over her stepsister in many of these stories, either. Cinderella had two stepsisters, both superiored by her stepmother jamir wrote this mir_mir_09

Is the story of Cinderella a true story?
The story of Cinderella is about a girl who had a father. Her father married a woman, who had two daughters. Well, one day the girls father died, leaving the young girl with her father's wife, and her stepmother. The stepmother and stepsisters (usually told to be ugly) were very cruel to her, and made her do countless chores, and basically be their maid. Cinderella was a very pleasant, beautiful girl. She had a wonderful singing voice. Cinderella grew up, and when she was a teenager, (so were her stepsisters) the King and Queen of the kingdom announced a royal ball was to be held in honor of their son the Prince. The Prince was to be married very soon, and needed to pick a wife. So all young women of the kingdom were invited. Well, the day of the royal ball came, and with many preparations, Cinderella's stepsisters and stepmother left the house to go to the ball, leaving her with many chores. She was very upset because she wanted to go to the ball too! But she could not unless she finished all her chores, and her stepmother had given her so many she knew she would never finish in time. Cinderella ran out into the garden, and began weeping. When, all of the sudden, a woman was standing in front of her! "Hello dear, why do you cry?" The woman asked. Cinderella looked up and couldn't believe her eyes! This woman had wings! And... was that a wand? "I wish to go to the ball, but I cannot because my Stepmother has forbidden me. And... I could never go looking like this." She cried. The woman was her fairy godmother. She waved her magic wand, and a pumpkin turned into a glittering carrige. Four scampering mice were turned into tall, proud, white horses. And, to Cinderella's great amazment, her old dirty rags turned into a gorgeous ball gown! She looked down and had beautiful glass slippers on her tiny feet. She thanked her godmother, and leaped into the carige. "Don't forget, the magic will wear off at midnight!" her godmother yelled. "Thank you! I won't forget!" Cinderella replied. And off to the ball she went. She arrived and stepped into the enormous ballroom. All voices hushed, and the Prince could not believe his eyes. The most beautiful girl was standing at the top of the staircase. He quickly asked her to dance, and they danced all night! Cinderella lost track of time and before she knew it, the clock struck 12. "Oh my!" She cried. She quickly fled the room and Prince chased after her. "Wait! Where are you going? I don't even know your name!" He yelled. Cinderella had no time to answer, because the magic was about to wear off. The prince was devastated. But, as he was searching for her, he found a beautiful glass slipper sitting on the stairs. If only he could find the maiden that had worn the shoe... The next day he sent out a servant to every house in the kingdom. He ordered every girl try on the glass slipper. Whoever it fit, was his bride-to-be. The girl that was at the ball. The servant finally made it to Cinderellas house. Her stepmother and stepsisters of course had no idea that Cinderella had ever left the house. When the servant knocked on the door, he tried the slipper on both girls. It fit neither of them. "Is there anyone else in this home?" He asked. The stepmother replied, "well yes, we have a servant girl. But she is not worth your time. She has never even been to the castle!" She said. The servant insisted every lady try on the shoe, so Cinderella was ushered into the room and into a chair. The slipper fit perfectly! Cinderella was overjoyed, and was brought to the castle immeadietly. The prince knew it was her the moment he saw her. They were married, and lived happily ever after.
