Notes from Cinderella stories

Disney-

Romance and Magic
"Mean"-pettiness, jealousy
no violence

-Brothers Grimm-

more vivid grief
more real characters, no fairy
more violent:
~pecked out eyes
~bloody feet

-Yeh-hsien-

harder to recognize as Cinderella

~Simularities in all 3~

-small feet
-not treated well by family
-sibling rivalry, found much more in modern versions
-all have some things that help "Cinderella"
