Then more people told these stories! 這些故事還存在的原因是人們口耳相傳。之後又有人把故事寫下來，讓更多人說故事! Some of our favorite stories are very, very old. Today's Cinderella story is more than 300 years old! It came from France. But people in China told a Cinderella story too - more than 1,000 years ago! And people in Greece told a Cinderella story - more than 2,000 years ago! 現今的灰姑娘版本源自於法國，有三百年的歷史。但是一千多年前，中國就有像灰姑娘的故事。 兩千多年前的希臘也有。 People told Cinderella's story again and again and again and again.
