Once before time, there was a dinosaur named Cinderella Rex.
Cinderella Rex loved to dance.
But her stompmother did not let her dance.
She had to clean up after her mean stompsisters.
One day, a letter came.
Everyone was invited to a ball at the castle.
Cinderella Rex was finally going to dance!
But first she had to help her stompsisters get ready.
“There is no time left,” her stompmother said.
“You are not ready.” 
They left without Cinderella Rex.
Cinderella Rex was sad.
She wanted to dance at the ball.
She could only dance alone in her garden.
Then Cinderella Rex saw a puff of magic!
A new dinosaur was there.
“Who are you?”
Cinderella Rex asked.
“I am your Fairy Triceratops,” she said.
“I will help you.”
The fairy Triceratops waved her magic horns.
A dress appeared.
A great big squash turned into a coach.
It was magic!
Cinderella Rex thanked her Fairy Triceratops.
She was going to the ball!
“The magic lasts until midnight,” said the Fairy Triceratops.
“Hurry home.”
At the ball, Cinderella Rex heard the music.
She could not wait.
She started dancing.
Everyone stared. 
Cinderella Rex was the best dancer they had ever seen!
“Who is that dancer?” the prince asked. 
“I don’t know,” said Cinderella Rex’s stompmother.
The clock struck midnight.
Cinderella Rex had to go home!
She ran out of the castle.
The prince followed.
He wanted to talk to her.
Cinderella Rex ran down the steps. 
Her shoe fell off!
She tried to pick it up, but her arms could not reach it.
She kept running.
With the final chime, the magic was gone.
But Cinderella Rex was happy.
She had danced at the ball.
The prince had a plan.
The next day, he took the shoe to every house in town.
He tried the shoe on Cinderella Rex’s older stompsister.
Her feet were too small!
She tried the shoe on Cinderella Rex’s younger stompsister.
Her feet had too many toes!
Next was Cinderella Rex.
But first her stompmother wanted to try.
Then her stompmother STOMPED!
The shoe was crushed.
How would the prince find the dancer?
Cinderella Rex knew what to do. She danced.
Everyone looked at the prince.
“Cinderella Rex,” he said,
“will you teach me to dance?”
So Cinderella Rex moved to the castle.
Her stompsisters had to clean up for themselves.
Cinderella Rex was too busy… dancing!
