    (Walt Disney Productions, 2009) Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm; Wilhelm Carl Grimm
    Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is a timeless fairy tale first popularized by the Brothers Grimm in their renowned collection of folktales. This enchanting story follows Snow White, a beautiful princess whose life is threatened by her jealous stepmother, the Evil Queen. The Queen, envious of Snow White's beauty, orders her death. However, Snow White escapes and finds refuge with seven kind-hearted dwarfs in a secluded cottage in the forest. As the tale unfolds, the Evil Queen uses various disguises to deceive Snow White and ultimately succeeds in poisoning her with a cursed apple. Snow White falls into a death-like sleep, but is eventually awakened by a prince’s kiss, breaking the spell. The story concludes with Snow White and the prince’s triumphant return to the castle and the demise of the Evil Queen. This fairy tale, rich in themes of jealousy, innocence, and true love, has captured the imagination of audiences worldwide. Its enduring popularity was further cemented by Walt Disney’s groundbreaking 1937 animated film adaptation, which introduced a new generation to the magic and charm of Snow White and her adventures. The tale’s combination of enchanting characters, moral lessons, and whimsical elements makes it a beloved classic in children’s literature.
