A story about Cinderella, who is treated poorly by her step-mother and step-sisters. Cinderella and her family are invited to the prince's royal ball, but she is forbidden to go. Thanks to her fairy-godmother, Cinderella manages to go to the ball, without her family knowing, and win the love of the prince. The magic of her fairy god mother runs out at midnight, and Cinderella runs away from the ball, leaving her glass slipper behind. The Prince searches the kingdom for the maiden who fits the slipper, finds Cinderella and marries her.
Unfolded pages contain pages 1, 15, 14, 3, 6, 11, 10, and 7. These unfolded pages contain excerpts from the story of Cinderella. Due to its nature as an uncut chapbook, this page does not tell a consecutive story.
