Hello, I'm Pearl. I'm just about to fix my spaceship.

0:00:060:00:11

I love travelling through space and seeing all the planets!

0:00:110:00:15

Our story tonight is about a girl just like me.

0:00:150:00:18

It's called Interstellar Cinderella and it's

0:00:180:00:21

written by Deborah Underwood and illustrated by Meg Hunt.

0:00:210:00:26

Once upon a planetoid, amid her tools and sprockets,

0:00:260:00:30

a girl named Cinderella dreamed of fixing fancy rockets.

0:00:300:00:35

She fixed the robot dishwashers and zoom brooms in her care

0:00:350:00:40

but late each night she snuck away to study ship repair.

0:00:400:00:44

One day, her wicked stepsisters came dashing in, excited.

0:00:460:00:50

"The Prince's Royal Space Parade! Our family's invited!"

0:00:500:00:54

"I wish that you could come, my dear.

0:00:540:00:57

"Alas, no room, although why don't you fix that broken ship

0:00:570:01:01

"and fly it to the show?"

0:01:010:01:03

"My tool box!" Cinderella cried. "We're stranded here, I guess."

0:01:040:01:09

But Murgatroyd, the mouse, sent out a cosmic SOS.

0:01:090:01:15

"I'm here! Your Fairy Godrobot! I'll make you brand-new tools.

0:01:150:01:20

"You'll need a spacesuit, too, of course - atomic blue with jewels.

0:01:210:01:26

"This Power Gem will speed your ship across the starry sky.

0:01:280:01:32

"It only lasts till midnight. After that, your ship won't fly."

0:01:320:01:36

"Oh, thank you," Cinderella said.

0:01:360:01:38

She quickly fixed the rocket then tucked the sonic socket wrench

0:01:380:01:42

inside her spacesuit pocket.

0:01:420:01:46

She zoomed past stars and nebulae and parked beside a moon.

0:01:460:01:50

The Space Parade was glorious! Each starship made her swoon.

0:01:520:01:57

At last, the Royal Ship approached! Her heart was filled with yearning.

0:01:580:02:04

The ship of Cinderella's dreams! But heavens! What was burning?

0:02:040:02:10

The Prince's spaceship jerked and hissed and spewed a cloud of grit.

0:02:120:02:17

The Prince hopped out. "Oh, blast! What now? My chief mechanic quit!"

0:02:170:02:22

But Interstellar Cinderella knew just what to do.

0:02:240:02:27

She zip-zapped with her socket wrench. The ship was good as new!

0:02:270:02:32

The Prince invited her aboard. Last stop - Galactic Hall.

0:02:340:02:39

He said, "I hope you'll join me for the Gravity-Free Ball."

0:02:400:02:45

They talked for hours of rocket ships. The time went whizzing by.

0:02:450:02:49

Then Cinderella saw the clock and said, "I have to fly."

0:02:490:02:54

CLOCK CHIMES

0:02:540:02:55

"But wait!" the Prince called after her. "Please tell me how to find..."

0:02:550:03:00

The girl was gone. But she had left her socket wrench behind.

0:03:000:03:05

The Prince sent a transmission to the farthest edge of space.

0:03:070:03:11

"I'll search the cosmos for her. How I wish I'd seen her face!"

0:03:110:03:17

"The Prince's ship!" Grisilla screeched.

0:03:170:03:20

Her sister squealed in fear.

0:03:200:03:22

"The Prince won't marry one of us if Cinderella's here!"

0:03:220:03:26

Their mother said, "Don't worry. He won't find her in this house.

0:03:260:03:30

"I've trapped her in the attic with that useless robot mouse!"

0:03:300:03:36

The Prince's cargo door revealed a broken craft within.

0:03:360:03:40

"The girl I seek can fix a ship, so who'd like to begin?"

0:03:400:03:44

He gave the sonic socket wrench to one then to the other.

0:03:460:03:50

Alas, they couldn't fix the ship, and neither could their mother.

0:03:500:03:55

Cinderella struggled, but the space rope held her tight.

0:03:550:03:59

Till Murgatroyd's robotic teeth cut through it with one bite.

0:04:010:04:06

"The ship! It's leaving! Wait, what's this?"

0:04:060:04:11

She made a fast repair then strapped the rusty jet pack on

0:04:110:04:15

and blasted through the air. She landed right beside the Prince.

0:04:150:04:21

"That wrench is mine!" she cried. She quickly fixed the ailing ship.

0:04:210:04:25

The Prince said, "Be my bride!"

0:04:250:04:28

She thought this over carefully. Her family watched in panic.

0:04:300:04:35

"Mm, I'm far too young for marriage, but I'll be your chief mechanic."

0:04:350:04:40

Amid her fleet of sparkling ships and friends both old and new,

0:04:420:04:47

a joyful Cinderella cried, "My stars!

0:04:470:04:52

"Dreams do come true."

0:04:520:04:53

Ah! I love that story!

0:04:560:04:57

I think I'd make a pretty good chief mechanic, too. What about you?

0:04:570:05:02

It's time to go to bed now and dream of journeys through space and time.

0:05:020:05:06

Just close your eyes and count the stars.

0:05:060:05:09

I'll be back soon for another Bedtime Story but,

0:05:090:05:12

until then, night-night.
