The story of Cinderella is a true rag to riches story that has been told and retold for generations. It is a story that seems to resonate with people all over the world with a message of hope that everyone can appreciate.
It is believed that the first time the story was told it involved a Greek slave girl who married an Egyptian king. The story evolved with time and its first European version was published in 1634. It was later retold by the Brothers Grimm in their famous collection of fairy tales, Grimms’ Fairy Tales.
