Rough-Face Girl is about a Native American from the Algonquin tribe. The tale is very similar to the fairytale of Cinderella that we all know today. The story is about a girl who was forced to tend to the fire by her older sisters. while tending to the fire her skin became covered with burns and scars. One day her sisters asked their father for clothes so they could marry an invisible man, who will marry a woman who can see him. They are quizzed on his appearance by the mans sister. They fail and head home. Their sister then decides to see if she could marry the invisible man. She makes the best out of the clothing she has, which was not that much. The man's sisters quizzes her and she passes. She meets the invisible man, is given nice clothes and is married.
Rough-Face Girl shows that beauty is not only based on one's appearance on the outside, but from a person's personality and what is on the inside. Not always is it that people see as a form of beauty themselves, but is normally pointed out to them by others. Such as in the end when the girl's tribe sees her as beautiful after she marries the invisible man, while prior to that they laughed at the thought of the two of them marrying each other.
