A Modern Cinderella


Book Description

"A Modern Cinderella" is a reimagining of the classic fairy tale "Cinderella," set in a 19th-century American context. The story centers around a young woman named Jessie, who is mistreated and abused by her stepmother and stepsisters. Much like the traditional Cinderella character, Jessie is kind-hearted, hardworking, and resilient. Jessie's life takes a positive turn when she befriends a wealthy family who recognizes her innate goodness and offers her opportunities for education and personal growth. She becomes a governess for their children and forms a close bond with the family. Throughout the story, Jessie's inner beauty and strength shine through as she remains humble, virtuous, and generous, despite her challenging circumstances. Her goodness is rewarded, and she ultimately finds happiness and love in a modern-day fairy tale ending.
