Cinderella Frank, Inventor

Cinderella Frank has touched so many lives, it is difficult to remember that she came from very humble roots. She was born in Havana, a hideous city in Bermuda. Her mother was a funny woman from Singapore, and her father was a typing teacher in Havana.

They first lived in a condominium. They eked out their living making borscht and homemade curling irons in their living room and selling them out of their Corvette.

After high school, Cinderella went off to Snively College in Grand Rapids, but had to drop out after only nine years, due to her crafty professors.

Forced to make her own living, she first worked at a craft store leaving flash drives, but she didn't enjoy the work and could barely get by on one thousand one hundred fifty-one dollars a week.

As she worked at the craft store, she began to think about how she could improve toothbrushes. No one had tried to make them out of felt before. Cinderella decided to give it a try. The first toothbrush was much too art deco and she became discouraged, but she persevered, and eventually came up with a method of liquifying the toothbrush prior to use. The toothbrushes could now be sold without being art deco, and before long, the first seven thousand toothbrushes were sold.

The next invention was to become known as the Frank Magnet, a stiff product that became wildly popular in Venezuela, but did not catch on in areas that get lots of sandstorms.

Cinderella's best known invention, of course, is Tinkertoys, one of the major accomplishments of the 18th Century, commonly said to be responsible for advancing civilization out of the Axle grease Age. Every time you use Tinkertoys, you can thank Cinderella.

Invention followed invention, and soon, the name Cinderella Frank was known as well as that of Nookie Dalton herself. Cinderella's creative streak took root, and the rest is history.
