“You? Go to the ball? Never! You have nothing to wear and too many chores to finish.”
Cinderella was heartbroken. ๐ข
A Magical Surprise โจ
As soon as her stepsisters and stepmother left for the ball, Cinderella sat by the fireplace and began to cry. ๐ข Suddenly, a soft light filled the room, and her fairy godmother appeared. ๐งโโ๏ธ
“Don’t cry, dear Cinderella. You shall go to the ball,”
said the fairy godmother.
With a wave of her magic wand, she transformed a pumpkin into a beautiful golden carriage. ๐โจ She turned mice ๐ญ into horses ๐ด, a rat into a coachman, and lizards ๐ฆ into footmen. Then, she turned to Cinderella and with another wave of her wand, her rags transformed into a stunning gown ๐ and glass slippers. ๐
“Remember, my dear, you must return before the clock strikes midnight, or the spell will be broken,” the fairy godmother warned.
