We met people from all over the world and asked them to read the same passage from the globally famous fairy tale, Cinderella:
“Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a young girl named Cinderella. She was kind and gentle, yet she was treated cruelly by her wicked stepmother and stepsisters, who made her do all the household chores and wear rags. Despite her hardships, Cinderella remained hopeful and dreamed of a better life.”
