Cinder Ella and Cinder Edna live next door to each other in exactly the same situation. Ella bemoans her fate. Edna cleans bird cages for pocket money and tries to keep happy. When the ball arrives, Ella wishes for a fairy godmother. Edna had a dress on layaway and takes the bus. Edna meets the prince, is bored, and dances the night away with the prince's brother. Both Cinders run when midnight chimes and leave shoes behind. The prince finds Cinder Ella by using the slipper. The brother finds Edna by calling every Edna in the phone book and asking how many recipes she knows for tuna casserole.
Why I recommend it: The Cinderella story has been redone in a very clever way. Cinder Ella had a very boring life after she was married and Cinder Ella is shown laughing while reading a joke book with her husband.
