Cinder by Marissa Meyer

By Lauren Ayube

Cinder is a sixteen year old cyborg living in New Beijing, the futuristic city in the Eastern Commonwealth, with her stepsisters and her horrible stepmother. A highly skilled mechanic, Cinder has a booth in the marketplace, and is visited by Prince Kai, who asks her to fix his android. An outbreak of the deadly disease letumosis spreads quickly through the marketplace and everything begins to unravel. Cinder’s world is about to change as she tries to save her stepsister’s life and, ultimately, the whole planet.

Storyboard Text

  • COURAGE
  • Levana plans to kill you once you are married!
  • At least I am not going into it blindly.
  • ACCEPTANCE and CONNECTION
  • You are not going to the ball. You don't belong there.
  • Although she knows that her life is at risk, Cinder feels the need and responsibility to protect her country and its people. One example of this is when she goes to the ball, knowing that Queen Levana is there and wants her dead, in order to prevent Kai from agreeing to marry the Queen.
  • Cinder lives with her horrible stepmother and her two stepsisters. Peony, the youngest, shows caring and kindness towards Cinder, but she dies from letumosis. Because Cinder is a cyborg, people dislike her and are afraid of her, even though they may not know her. Cinder longs for a connection with someone.
