My favorite type of the “Cinderella” tales is the "Catskin" versions. My favorite tale of this included in the text is "The Princess in the Suit of Leather." I like this tale because the "Cinderella" figure is a very assertive and active princess. She is very clever and doesn't need a "fairy godmother" to help her solve her problems; she knows what she needs to do in order to escape her marriage to her father. She is very creative in the way that she lets her prince discover her identity. She places the ring she took off of the prince’s finger into the bread cake that she was making for the princes journey. The prince eats the bread and discovers who his princess is.
