Stanley uses other characters to tell the story and manages to keep the reader from being confused. The story follows the struggles of Bella, but isn't just told through her voice.

The story combines many classic elements from fairy tales, nobility as a peaseant, wicked step-family, magic rings, glass slippers, and the Worthy Knight. In the end, she rescues not only her prince, but her country, another country, and one of her step-sisters. She is later brought back into her father's house when she is older, but hates it there. There she befriends Prince Julian, who as the grow scorns her for being a peasant.
