There are many Cinderella  updates as well as the three little pigs (the 
Three Javalenas).  There is a whole series of Cinderella's from other 
cultures: the Korean one, the Egyptian one and so on plus modern ones like 
Ella Enchanted, Cinder Elly, etc.   There are a number where the tale is 
turned upside down as well such as the True Story of the Big Bad Wolf and 
others.  There's one about the frog prince but I can't remember the title 
off hand.  The reinvented fairy tale is practically a sub-genre now.  I 
have some titles but they're in my classroom...

Hi, 

I have done an activity on fairytales such as the one you are trying to 
do.  Unfortunately, all of my things are in my storage so I can't really 
help you.  I do however remember that there are several books about 
Cinderella such as Cinder Edna, Turkey Girl, and many others.  I think you 
may be able to type in the word Cinderella or something similar on the 
internet and you should get a hit.  I hope this helps at least a little 
bit.

For Cinderella versions try:

The Egyptian Cinderell, The Korean Cinderella and Yeh-Shen, a Chinese 
version.  All these are by Shirley Climo and are published by Harper 
Trophy.
