Our school has Cinderella and Rockefeller fever right now. Watching the Foundation Phase put on a pantomime version of Cinderella last night was such a treat! Cast 1 did an excellent job and they were so funny.
Did you know there are many different versions of Cinderella? According to Wikipedia, the oldest tale of a story that had a similar plot to Cinderella was written in the 1st century BC! It was about a rosy-cheeked girl called Rhodophis who lived in Ancient Egypt. We have many different adaptations of Cinderella in our library. Here is a list of them in case you'd like to read one....
1. Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine
2. Prince Cinders by Babette Cole
3. Cinderella by Nick Sharratt
4. Cinderella by Walt Disney
5. Ella's Big Chance by Shirley Hughes
