Ganz schön wählerisch ist diese Prinzessin Konstanze. Zahllose Edelmänner haben schon um ihre Hand angehalten, aber kein Einziger passt ihr in den Kram. Nicht einmal der sympathische König Drosselbart ist ihr gut genug, doch das soll sie nur zu bald bereuen. Denn nun hat ihr Vater, der König, genug und verheiratet sie mit einem bettelarmen Spielmann. Yoyo und Doc Croc werden Zeugen einer wundersamen Wandlung: Gezwungen zu schwerer und sogar gefährlicher Arbeit lernt Konstanze das wahre Leben kennen.

Stroh zu Gold spinnen? Da hat sich der Müller aber etwas Feines ausgedacht, um seine Tochter vor dem grausamen Steuervogt des Königs zu schützen. Doc Croc wälzt seine Alchemie-Bücher, aber selbst er ist hier mit seinem Latein am Ende. Ist es also ein Glück oder ein Unglück, als dieser schrullige kleine Wicht wie aus dem Nichts auftaucht, sich ans Spinnrad setzt und Gold nach Herzenslust produziert? Ist das den Verlust des erstgeborenen Kindes der Müllerstochter wert?

So eine Ungerechtigkeit! Yoyo und Doc Croc können es gar nicht fassen, was sich diese gemeine Stiefmutter mit ihren beiden herzlosen Töchtern gegenüber dem armen Aschenputtel herausnimmt, wenn deren Vater auf Reisen ist. In der Asche muss sie schlafen, die ganze Hausarbeit allein erledigen und nun darf sie nicht einmal mit auf den Ball des Prinzen! Dabei tanzt sie doch so gerne… Zum Glück gibt es da noch die geheimnisvolle weiße Taube auf dem Mandelbäumchen am Grab von Aschenputtels Mutter. Sie weiß immer Rat.

Ein echter französischer Edelmann spricht mitten im deutschen Wald Rotkäppchen an? Doc Croc kommt das recht spanisch vor. Und damit liegt er ganz richtig, denn unter der Puderperücke und Samtbrokat verbirgt sich niemand anderes als der böse Wolf. Yoyo und Doc Croc versuchen alles, um Rotkäppchen zu warnen. Doch wie warnt man jemanden, der nicht gewarnt werden will?
