Cinderella
Cinderella turned into a 'Who Done It' without me expecting it too. Many have complained that this is the shortest of the books, I removed the magic from the story...
Welcome to the World of...
Well sort of...
I have heard so many versions of fairy tales, I'm starting to forgetting how the stories actually go.
There's no way I can say The Second Side Series of fairy tales are the only way to understand these tales.
Far from it!
Instead, I will say is that they give you the familiar. Similar cast of characters, iconic moments, and even locations.
However, how you get from familiar moment to familiar moment might be a bit different than how you were told as a child.
I will leave it to you to decide.
Ever Sincere,

The Second Side Series
Reversal of Beauty
Many honestly believe an angry and conceided prince was trapped in the form of a beast.
After this author sat down with many servants in the castle it was explained that the real beast was Beauty! All her outbursts and foul temper towards anyone who crossed her path, made life difficult for many.
Gossip: The Evil Stepmother's Tale
Some think the step mother was evil and did horrible things to her step daughter.
This author heard rumor that the infamous girl known as 'Cinderella' had a horrible condition known as OCD and her step mother had absolutely nothing to do with the poor girl's odd cleaning habits.
Stalked: The Conti Rose
Some say there is no love story to 'Jack and the Beanstalk'. This author disagrees!
Read the prequel to the famous tale and you just might find a couple things that were quite unexpected. Including one of fairy tale's best love stories never told!
Elements of a proper Fairy Tale
1. A Parolous Journey
2. A Huge Obstical or Fear to Overcome
3. Usually follow someone of lower status trying to get to higher status
4. The Fairy Godmother - Please note that she doesn't come in to most original fairy tales. Not even Cinderella. The closest I have read is a fairy queen in 'Sleeping Beauty'.
5. Not all Fairy Tale end with 'Happily Ever After'. Just the most popular ones.
