Cinderella : or, The little glass slipper by John R. Neill

Cinderella by John R. Neill is a children’s fairy-tale picture book created in the early 20th century. It presents a classic tale of kindness rewarded, in which a mistreated girl, aided by a fairy godmother, attends a royal ball and wins the prince’s heart. The story follows Cinderella, forced by her stepmother and stepsisters to toil in rags, until her fairy godmother transforms a pumpkin into a coach, mice into horses, and rags into a jeweled gown with glass slippers, warning her to leave by midnight. At the palace she enchants the prince, but on the second night flees at the stroke of twelve, leaving a slipper behind. The prince’s search ends when the slipper fits Cinderella, who reveals herself, forgives her sisters, and marries the prince. This volume also includes The Three Bears, in which Goldilocks wanders into the bears’ neat cottage, samples their porridge, chairs, and beds, and, when discovered, escapes in fright—learning not to stray again.
