Reading Notes: Rushen Coatie


The “Rushen Coatie” story is a Scottish version of Cinderella. Cinderella was my favorite Disney movie growing up so this fairy tale stuck out to me. While I was reading this story, I was really surprised how different it was. Although the story line was similar, it had different events. I noticed that there are several versions of Cinderella but I have never read them. Since more people know the Disney version, I could rewrite this story and keep the same events. I like how the Rushen Coatie(Cinderella) met the prince at a church and not a ball. Also, they encountered each other more than just one day. I could also add some different details to the story as well. I think it will be interesting to just read a different version of Cinderella.
