Answer: Dress and shoes

With a flick of her wand and the song "Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo", Cinderella's fairy godmother changed a pumpkin into a carriage, mice into horses, and a horse into a footman. For a dress, the fairy godmother used magic to fix Cinderella's ruined pink dress into a blue and white ball gown. For an added touch, Cinderella was given glass slippers.

Answer: True

After the clock struck midnight, Cinderella ran from the man she wasn't aware was the prince.

Cinderella offered him the other glass slipper that she was carrying with her. The Prince and Cinderella were married soon after.
