Something that I loved about the original Cinderella story was that it was much more different than the Disney version. How the stepsisters got karma for what they did to Cinderella and also how the fairy godmother wasn't some random fairy, but a magical tree. A much more different interpretation of Cinderella's fairy godmother.

1)The version of Cinderella i read was the Egyptian version, I read it because i'm Egyptian.

2) 3 character traits of Cinderella are that she isn't Egyptian she is actually roman but was abducted and sold as a slave in Egypt. The second one is that she is humble because after she married the prince she still remained pure. The third one is how grateful she is because of how much the golden slipper meant to her.

3) This version is similar to the original because of how if you where pure and true in heart your luck sooner or later pay off.

4) This version is different because
the Egyptian one was in a foreign land

5) I like the Egyptian one better because i'm from Egypt

3.  How is this version similar to the myth you already knew?
It has a girl who is mistreated by her family, and who in the end gets rewarded for dealing with it.

4. How is this version different than the one you already knew?
Cinderella (Cindy Ellen) is now a cowgirl plus her fairy godmother has a gun now.

5. Which version did you like the most? Why?
I liked the original the most because it is the original and plus it was more dark than most versions

1. I believe the theme of this story is to be polite, kind and grateful to others. This is shown through Nyasha who grew up being a very gentle and good natured person, unlike her sister Manyara who was cunning and cruel and always told Nyasha that one day she'd be queen and Nyasha would be her servant, and Nyasha would say that she would gladly do so. One day a King from a neighboring city sent a message to the two girls' father which stated: "The most Worthy and Beautiful Daughters in the Land are invited to appear before the king,
and he will choose one to become queen!". The father told his daughters of the message and that they'd set out the next morning for the palace. Manyara being greedy would sneak out in the night with a pouch of food en route to the king's palace, along the path Manyara encountered a hungry boy which she rudely shoved aside and an old woman who tried to give her advice which she ignored. Nyasha did the exact opposite as she went along the path the next day when going to the palace, giving the boy and the old woman, fruits from her food basket. upon arriving at the palace she found her sister who said the king was a snake who had scared her, but Nyasha believed that she had not come this far for nothing and entered the castle, only to find a small snake she had befriended in her garden. Which then transformed into the king whom told her he was also the hungry boy and the old woman ( a shapeshifter) and asked her to marry him, to which she agreed and she lived happily ever after with her sister Manyara as a servant.

1. One of the themes of the Irish version, Cinderlad, is friendship because Becan, Cinderlad, became bestfriends with the angry, and red spotted bull whenever neither of them had any friends. Another theme of this version of the story is bravery n8

2. The 3 traits of Cinderlad, the Irish version of Cinderella, are he is very brave,

# data[].attributes.body
1.)  The theme of the Irish cinderlad is about humbleness and friendship.
2.) Becan is a very kind, giving  and helping person.
3.) its similar from their backround, and family situation.
4.) Becan is male, he has a magical bull friend, and the bull passes away. Its also different because he saves the princess from a dragon with the magical bull tale.
5.) I think i would prefer this Irish version because i love the cinderella story, but i've heard it so many times that i love something new. I love the added meaning and story.

1. I believe that the theme of this version of Cinderella, is that goodhearted people will in return deserve their good karma while people who have done cruel things in their lives, like the stepmother will in return deserve bad karma. For example, Yeh-Shen was a kind, bright girl who was goodhearted and lonely. Yeh-Shen had many good traits that enraged her stepmother. She was jealous that Yeh-Shen was better than her own daughter and decided to unleash her fury on poor Yeh-Shen. Because of this, Yeh-Shen finally received her good karma and was freed by the cruelty of both her step mother and step sister while her stepmother and step sister are punished and died  a horrible death in the end.

2. Yeh-Shen is a goodhearted person who was very beautiful and bright. But she also was very lonesome and had only a fish for a friend that would keep her company. Because of this, Yeh-Shen was also secretive because she did not let anyone know about her dear fish friend, and kept it a secret.

3. The Chinese version has some similarity to the original version. For example, Yeh-Shen and Cinderella were both orphans that were being horribly mistreated by their stepmother and their stepsisters (though Yeh-Shen had only one stepsister). In addition, in both versions, Yeh-Shen and Cinderella have their own "fairy godmother". Cinderella had a tree that was grown from her mother's grave and Yeh-Shen had fishbones that

1. I think the theme of this story is to be honest, pure of heart and have a brave spirit.  You can see this when the "Invisible One" says "For years I have
waited to find a woman of pure heart and brave spirit."  The story also demonstrates honesty when the sister ask the girls it they can see The Invisible One and they lie and say yes, therefore they are not worthy of seeing the Invisible One.

2.the "Cinderella" of the story, Oochigeaskw, shows bravery, and resilience when she goes to try and see The Invisible One despite her sisters mocking her and the others laughing at her,so instead of being discouraged she shows her craftiness by making a makeshift dress out of rags and birch bark.  she then goes on to show her honesty, and courage when she goes to meet The Sister and see if she can see The Invisible One and when she does she proves that she is" pure of heart, and brave of spirit."

3. the Native American version of Cinderella is similar to the ones I already knew because both of the "Cinderellas" of the story are rewarded for their kindness, honesty, and bravery.  The stories are also similar through the characters, both have stepsister like figures and a a missing maternal figure in their lives.

4. this story is different because in the story of Oochigeaskw, she has no fairy godmother and has to provide for herself and unlike Cinderella the others are not able to see The Invisible One.

5. I prefer the story of Cinderella because the story is like the classic and it provides a good story line and plot along with a good message.

1} The theme of the African version of the story was to not be greedy or selfish. It shows this because Manyara only thought of herself which is why she left early in order to try and see the king before her sister Nyasha. In addition, Manyara also said "Someday Nyasha, I will be queen, and you will be a servant in my household." In addition, when she sneaked away at night with a pouch of good to go see the king, a little boy walked up to her and asked for food but Manyara just shoved him out of his way. Karma came back and hit Manyara by not getting picked as queen and instead serving as a household servant for her sister which became the queen.

2} Three character traits of Nyasha include: gentle, good-natured, and hardworking. They show by how carefully she takes care of her garden. It also shows when she's talking to her sister and interacting with the animals in her beautiful garden. The result of her personalty was that the king became in love with her and she became the queen.

3} The African version of Cinderella is similar to the original version because a letter from the messenger appeared stating that "All the beautiful woman in the land are invited to see the the king, and there he will pick his queen".

4} This version is different because the "True Love" that the king chose never had lost her slipper. There was also no fairy godmother of any type involved in the story other then the king stalking his love in different shapes.

5} I prefer the original story more because it has more events in the story other than 2 girls getting invited to see the king and then getting chosen to become the queen.

1. THe theme of the mexican cinderella isto be kind and loving of your family and to not take people for granted.
2.The character traits of this cinderella is kind sweet and understanding.
3. It used the term cinderella and it had the premice of the ball and losing a shoe there.
4. In this version there is a nanny that was kicked out of the houseand adalita was stuck with every chore.
5.This version is the best because it has a better premise.

# data[].attributes.body
1) I think the theme is to be brave. It shows through when the rough-faced girl sees the "Invisible One."

2) Three character traits are kind, brave, and honest. These are all shown when she sees the "Invisible One."

3) It is similar because she gets to marry the "wanted one." In both the German and the Native American one, this shows.

4) This one is different because there is no physical search for the lady. There is only a mental one

5) I like the Native American version better, because of how the man is found. It's almost in reverse.

1. I personally think the theme of this version is not only to be nice to others so you are not punished, but be genuinely happy for their opportunities and blessings. The stepmother tried to sabotage Maha, but eventually ended up failing and backfiring. It wouldn't have happened if she just simply accepted and supported Maha.

2. Maha is caring because she decided to save the little red fish without hesitate. She was hardworking because of the housework she always did for her family. She was also hopeful because despite the things her family said and did, she still longed to go to the henna and sing and dance like any other girl.

3. Some things that were similar to the original myth were that there was a stepmother who made her do lots of housework. There was also a charming man who she ended up marrying after she dropped her shoe.

4. Some things that were different from the original myth was that instead of a magical tree, it was a red fish who granted her wishes. Instead of two stepsisters, there was one. In the end, her stepsister had a chance to marry a man also but failed.

5. Although I enjoyed the original myth, I prefer this version. I liked how they lived among fishermen. I also liked how this version was a lot shorter and simpler but still got the point across. Her stepsister also got a shot at happiness with a man in this version as well.

1. The theme of this version of cinderella was to stay kind, honest, and show no disrespect to your sibling and parents even if they are rude and unfair.  The step sister's and step mother were nothing but rude and unfair to pear blossom  but she never showed them the rudeness that she was showed.

2. Three characters traits that pear blossom for this version of cinderella possess is shyness, thankfulness, and submissiveness.

3. This version of cinderella is similar the myth that i already knew in the way that pear blossom received help from animals to complete the chores or challenges assigned to her by her step mother and that she away finished the challenges in time, but her step mother refused to accept the finished product. Then proceed to keep giving her challenges to finish to go to the event that her step sister and step mother were going to.

1. One theme of this story is to not worry about what other people think. When Cindy Ellen went to Joe Prince's rodeo, she did her best and didn't care what anyone else thought.

2. Some character traits of Cindy Ellen is she is very beautiful, determined, and kind.

3. This story is similar to the original story is it has the same story line and sequence of events.

4. This story is different than the original because it had different types of events, and it was based in a western setting.

5. I prefer the original story of Cinderella because it was the version I grew up watching, and so many different versions came out of it. Without the original story we wouldn't have all of the other versions we have today.

1.What is the theme of of your version of the story? The theme of the story I read was to never underestimate someone by their looks and to always have faith no matter what situation that you are in. 2. What are three character traits of your Cinderella? Cinderella in the west was hard working, kind, respectful and charming. 3.How is this version similar to the myth you already knew? This version has the sisters, Cinderella, the rude and disrespectful mother, she was a hard worker and looked poor. A lot like the other ones. 4.How is this version different than the one that you already knew? This version was a lot less violent and a lot more sweeter than the other one. She was also a cowgirl and rode horses quite well.

1)Life can come back to you with either a gift or a curse such as Cindy got a gift from being kindhearted and kept her life in a good position unlike her sisters who didn't get what they wanted because they were being ugly.

2)She is hardworking and independent from working so much on what her step mother and sisters tell her to do like fixing fences.She is also kindhearted and talented because of the fact that she can ride horses as good as the guys and she was nice to everyone.

3)The similarities are the sisters and how the guy views the girl. The step sisters were both filled with an ugly heart and the boys such as the prince or Joe prince viewed Cinderella and Cindy Ellen as beautiful and that they were the only ones they wanted to fance with.

4)This one had different names,story and objects such as the diamond spur instead of the shoe,the godmother with a gun instead of the birds with their songs,and the way they figure out the girls aren't the fit of the shoe or spur.

5)I prefer the the original because of the fact that it is less childlike and can have a better lesson based off that fact that the creator must have had been told this story or could have known of an experience that he could have exaggerated into this story makes you wonder more than the other versions do.

1) One of this Cinderella story is to be kind to all and that sometimes it okay to stand out. You will be rewarded when you remain kind and calm; you can never go when when you when you stand out and really make a statement

# data[].attributes.body
1. The theme of this version is that you do not have to look like the perfect version of something to be a part of that something.

2. Three character traits of the Egyptian Cinderella are she was very forgiving. She was this way because even when she was being bullied by the Egyptian Slaves she did not snap at them all she did was just go along with what they say. Another character trait is that she was charming. She was charming because  when she danced she had all of the animals charmed. the last character trait is that she was grateful. She was grateful because when her owner gave her the slippers for her beautiful dancing she was very grateful.

1. The theme of the story is to be honest  and brave, in the story the girls have to be honest about if they see the invisible  man. Even though she knew that she did not have nice clothes she still walked through town to go see him.
2. She is brave because even though her sister burned her face and she had no nice clothes she still went to see the invisible man. She was also honest when the invisible mans sister asked if she saw him she said "I don't know."

1. I believe that the theme of this version of Cinderella, is that goodhearted people will in return deserve their good karma while people who have done cruel things in their lives, like the stepmother will in return deserve bad karma. For example, Yeh-Shen was a kind, bright girl who was goodhearted and lonely. Yeh-Shen had many good traits that enraged her stepmother. Her stepmother was jealous that Yeh-Shen was better than her own daughter and decided to unleash her fury on poor Yeh-Shen. Because of this, her stepmother and step sister were punished and died a horrible death in the end, while Yeh-Shen finally receives her good karma and is freed from the cruelty of both her step mother and step sister.

2. Yeh-Shen is a goodhearted girl who was very beautiful and bright. But she also was very lonesome and had only a fish for a friend that would keep her company. Because of this, Yeh-Shen was also secretive because she did not let anyone know about her dear fish friend, and kept it a secret from her stepmother.

3. The Chinese version has some similarities to the original version. For example, Yeh-Shen and Cinderella were both horribly mistreated by their stepmother and their stepsisters (though Yeh-Shen had only one stepsister). In addition, in both versions, Yeh-Shen and Cinderella have their own "fairy godmother". Cinderella had a tree that was grown from her mother's grave and Yeh-Shen had fishbones that she retrieved from her dead fish. Also, both Cinderella and Yeh-Shen would find themselves losing a slipper, and being found out that they were the beautiful maidens who captured the heart of the prince/king. There are of course many other similarities between the original story (I know very well) and the Chinese version of this story.

4. The Chinese version of the Cinderella story also has some differences between the original version (I know very well) as well. To begin with, Yeh-Shen's "fairy godmother" are remains of fish bones that she collected after her stepmother decided to punish Yeh-Shen for keeping a secret from her. Her stepmother had cooked her only friend, which was the fish. While Cinderella's "fairy godmother" was a magical tree that grew on her mother's grave. Both are different interpretations of the "fairy godmother." Also, Yeh-Shen wanted to go to a festival, but this festival was more of a place for young people to find a lover and get married. Cinderella also goes to a festival, but this festival was more for who was going to marry the prince. In addition,  when Yeh-Shen goes to the festival, her stepsister (technically her half-sister) still recognizes her a bit. She even tells her mother that the beautiful girl kind of resembled Yeh-Shen. At this point, Yeh-Shen quickly leaves the festival, not wanting to get caught. When Cinderella goes to the festival, her stepmother and stepsisters did not recognize her in her beautiful clothing. Instead, they believed that she was somewhere foreign and did not resemble Cinderella at all. Cinderella only leaves in the evening after dancing with the prince. Another thing is that Yeh-Shen's stepmother and stepsister are punished by the king (Yeh-Shen's husband) and are forced to stay in an isolated cave, where they meet their doom and get crushed by rocks. Meanwhile, Cinderella's stepsisters are punished by two doves and have eternal blindness for what they have done to poor Cinderella.  There are of course many other differences between the original story (I know very well) and the Chinese version of this story.

5. I prefer the Chinese version because it's both similar, but also very different from the Cinderella story that I've known for years. I love how Yeh-Shen wants to find her missing slipper to bring back her old friend and is unaware that the king placed the shoe where it was founded as a trap to find the maiden who had left the small, beautiful shoe. Her grief and love for her friend was much greater than love itself and overall the story was more about how she wanted to bring back her friend and got the bonus of getting married to the king and earning her freedom from her family.
