Cinderella is a popular fairy tale embodying a classic folk tale myth-element of unjust oppression/triumphant reward, of which there were hundreds of versions before modern times. The earliest version of the story originated in China around A.D. 860. It appeared in The Miscellaneous Record of You Yang (é
é³æä¿) by Tuan Ch'eng-Shih, a book which dates from the Tang Dynasty. The best-known version was written by the French author, Charles Perrault in 1697, based on a common folk tale earlier recorded by Giambattista Basile as La Gatta Cennerentola in 1634, but, especially in the English speaking world, the animated film from Walt Disney Productions, (see Cinderella (1950 film)) has become the standard contemporary version despite the fact that it somewhat sanitises the original plotline.

there are over 3000 versions of the story... The story can't claim a sole author, it does have a few notable interpreters.
Almost every culture has a version of the Cinderella fairy tale. The first Cinderella tale was called Yeh-shen, written in 850 AD in China
