Cinderella brings her some mice from the house and the fairy godmother changes them into horses.The fairy godmother next orders her to bring her the biggest rats there are. After Cinderella collected them, the fairy godmother changes them into servants. She finally changes Cinderellas poor maiden costume into a dress fit for a princess, and glass slippers, of course.
