To demonstrate how oral tales change over time, I would have students play the telephone game. We could talk about how tales change because they were passed on orally. We could discuss why there are so many variations and so many different Cinderella tales. One way I would use this book as a learning tool would be to have students watch the Disney version on film and make comparisons to the book. ![]() ![]() Since the reading level of this book is 4.5, I would only do use this book in my classroom if I were teaching 3 grade or older. I also noticed the fairy godmother says "Floomus Baloomus" which I find not nearly as melodic as Disney's "Bippity Boppity Boo". The illustrations are small and detailed, but not very vibrant. Her evil step-sisters call her Cinderbottom and tease and taunt her all the time. Cinderella is so sweet despite everything her wicked step-family does and says to her. ![]() This telling of the story is a little different than the one I remember hearing as a child. One day, Cinderella meets her fairy godmother who changes her life completely. Show More Cinderella endures all the abuse without complaining. ![]()
