Cinderella: Tale vs. Truth

Are there any elements of truth in ""Cinderella""? A young woman can be overworked, dirty from fireplace cinders, and left out by her mean stepsisters. But of course, there wouldn't be a fairy godmother saving the day by turning rags to a beautiful ball gown and mice into horses. Integrating science and culture with literacy, this book adds funny ""Truth Time"" sidebars to a retelling of Cinderella, explaining balls, trespassing, shoe fitting, and more.
