         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.  |

        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.

        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.

        Paul found the wrong person. 
        Then he married her and loved her.  He and Cendrillon met
        again.  Paul and the other girl got divorced.  Paul and
        Cendrillon got married.  They lived happily ever after in a cozy
        warm house.  The Godmother gave Cendrillon the mahogany wand. 
        Cendrillon had a baby girl and loved her.  Paul and her baby girl
        named Kristiana lived happily ever after.  Cendrillon gave her

        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.

         Cendrillon and Paul made a
        boat.  They brought Cendrillon's Godmother with them.  Three
        days later they found another boat.  They went to New York. 
        They had a baby and lived happily ever after.

        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.

         At the wedding everybody ate
        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.

        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.

        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."
