The original story of “Cinderella” by the Grimm Brothers and the later Disney version Cinderella (1950) are both descriptions of a legendary fairy tale of a kind and gentle girl who overcomes the rancor of her stepmother and stepsisters and ultimately finds a happy ending. Although both stories have the same plot, the overall messages that they deliver are different.

Perhaps, as one matures they realize what is really being portrayed. I disagree and agree with Mickey Mouse Monopoly. I disagree because I firmly believe children are for the most part viewing and understanding these cartoons innocently. However, I do agree that Disney has major influence on it
