Our third grade class read Cendrillon, which took place in Martinique. Martinique is an island in the Caribbean Sea. Here is a map that shows the setting of our story. We wrote poems, different endings, and sequels to the story. This version of Cinderella had a Godmother as one of its main characters. The male character, Paul, was not a prince. We are now interested in reading other Cinderellas around the world. |

DIFFERENT ENDINGS |
|
Cendrillon really wanted to go to the
ball. But she didn't. Paul danced with her stepsister and
fell in love with her. The next day they got married. Then
Cendrillon lived with them, but she had to clean up the whole
mansion.
by Jessica B. |
Cendrillon and Paul danced until they
fell asleep. The next day they woke up and went to Paul's
house. Then they danced together all day and night. Paul
gave Cendrillon flowers. They hugged and kissed each other like
Romeo and Juliet.

Cendrillon had to sew dresses for her stepsister to go to the ball. She was left to do chores. She went to go upstairs to her bedroom. She looked out the window. Her dad told her when she sees a bright star say, "One beautiful star." Poof, her Godmother was right in front of her. She became a beautiful princess. by Samantha H. |
Cendrillon almost got married
but the stepmother grabbed the wand and turned the Caribbean Sea into
sand. But that wand was a play wand. The fairy Godmother had
two wands. The stepmother had the false one. One wand turned
the Caribbean sand into water again. The stepmother vanished into
the past. Finally Cendrillon got married to Paul.
by Aneil P. |
Cendrillon's stepmother didn't let her
get married to Paul. She made Cendrillon clean windows. But
Cendrillon's Godmother put a zipper on the stepmother's mouth. She
could not talk. So Cendrillon's stepmother tried to take the
zipper off but couldn't because it had a lock on it. There was no
key for the lock. So, Cendrillon left on a plane to Asia with Paul
and got married there.

After midnight Cendrillon was still
dancing. Nothing happened. Then she went home.
Cendrillon dropped a slipper. The prince went looking at
Cendrillon's house first. The prince tried it on Cendrillon's
stepsister. It fit her perfectly. The prince married
Cendrillon's stepsister instead of her. Cendrillon was very
mad. Then Cendrillon lived with her stepsister and Paul. But
she was their servant.

Cendrillon had a baby girl and loved her. Paul and her baby girl
named Kristiana lived happily ever after. Cendrillon gave her
daughter the wand.

At the end Cendrillon goes back to the
ball and dances all night and half the next day. Then they got so
tired they slept on the ballroom floor. They walked around the
neighborhood and said hello to some people. Then they went to
Paul's friend's house. Then they went to the river for a
swim. Cendrillon and Paul went to Paul's house and had chocolate
sherbert.

After they got married Paul asked
Cendrillon if she would like to go with him to a castle. She was
welcome to bring her Godmother. So she did. Soon she had a
baby girl who she named Arena. Sadly Cendrillon died. As the
baby got older she would hear more about her mother. Her prayers
would be answered.

cake. It was good. Then Cendrillon danced with Paul.
Cendrillon lived with Paul. Nine months later she had a
baby. She named her Cendrillon like herself.

Paul and Cendrillon lived in the
castle. And Cendrillon looked at the sea. The stepsister had
to do all the work. Her hands turned blistery red. She had
to sleep on a hay bed now. Cendrillon doesn't have to do any
work. She gets to eat all the chocolate sherbert she wants.
By Robert I. |
At the wedding everyone ate chocolate
sherbert. Nine months later Cendrillon had a baby. She named
it Paula because the baby was a girl. She was named after her
daddy Paul.
by Kaitlyn D. |
Paul and Cendrillon are married.
Cendrillon really didn't feel so good. So she went to the
doctor. She came home and said, "Paul, I'm having two
children." "They are due on September 29th."
"It's only August 30th," said Paul. "I
know,"she said. "Are they boys or girls?" asked
Paul. "Both," she said. I'll name them Casey and
Justin. So days passed and she had the children. They moved
to New York. It was really cool. They made a lot of friends
except for one bully. Cendrillon was worried about her
Godmother. Her children never saw her. But she didn't want
to bring it up or she'd start crying. "What did you go
through in your childhood?" asked her children. "I'll
tell you when you get older."
