The prince picked up the flipper and was determined to find the owner of it. So Cinderella went all dressed up with glass flippers and enjoyed her night until she forget what time it was and ran out of the ball losing her flipper.
When the night of the ball came around, her step mom and sisters headed off to the ball and she stayed back dreaming until finally her fairy godmother showed up and granted her wish but the only rule was to be back by midnight.
So while she helped the her evil step sister penguins lose weight, fit into/try on dresses, and get them ready for this ball, all she wanted/could do was day dream about going along also. Cinderella wanted to go so bad but her evil step mom and sisters would not let her go. Then one day an invite came to the house inviting all the women penguins in the kingdom to a ball for the prince to find his new wife. Cinderella penguin had to do all of the dirty work around the house such as cleaning, sweeping, laundry and cooking. Cinderella lost her mother and he father married an evil step mother penguin and got two step sister penguins. The only difference is that the characters are not humans but beautiful penguins. The penguins' expressions are kind of goofy and the book tells the story fairly well, but it's not something I'd particularly want to read again.Ĭinderella penguin is written in the same format of the Cinderella we all know and love. Maybe this was original when it was first published in 1992, but there have been so many fairy tale retellings in recent years that I suspect there are probably some better ones out there. The only thing that's a little different is that when the Prince's footmen come looking for Cinderella, her family shoves her in the cellar and her foot gets caught sticking out of the cellar door when the stepsisters fight over the glass flipper and drop it, it lands squarely on her foot, fitting perfectly. This is just "Cinderella" but with penguins in all the roles. This book just didn't get there for me, as it's a basic retelling with very few changes from the original and the illustrations are nothing special. Either that, or the illustrations need to be spectacular.
