COMMENTS: TOTAL: 13.5
Jason, the ending to your story was excellent. It is a very original thought and gave the story an entertaining ending.
The main things you need to work on are spelling, grammar, use of capital letters and presentation. You also need to be more descriptive in your writing, for example,
explain what house work Cinderella was made to do and what she wore to the ball.
