 Story 

 

 

A long time ago, a child was born to a queen and king, she was named Snow White. When the queen died, the king decided to marry again. Unfortunately, the new queen was wicked and hated Snow white. And so, she gave orders that Snow White was to be treated as a servant.

As Snow White grew older, she became more and more beautiful. One day as the Prince was riding by the castle, he saw her at work in the garden and instantly fell in love with her. 

The queen was beautiful too, and every day she asked her magic mirror, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all?" and the mirror always answered, "You are the fairest one of all".

But one day the mirror answered Snow White, and in a jealous rage the queen gave orders to one of her Huntswomen to take Snow White deep into the forest and kill her.

The Huntswoman had a kind heart and couldn't do the deed so she instead told her to run away to be safe and never return. She fled into the woods meeting a few animals along the way and settled in a cottage where the three dwarfs lived. Their house was small, strange, and a bit untidy, but still inviting. 

Some time passed, and soon the Queen discovered where Snow White lived. After disguising herself as a witch, she made a poisoned apple and set out for the dwarfs cottage. While visiting, she gave Snow White the poisoned apple. Reluctantly, she took a bite into the apple, and immediately sank into unconsciousness.

Thinking she was dead, the dwarfs mourned their dear friend. Until one day, the Prince was riding through the forest and found Snow White.  So overcome with love, he kneeled down and kissed her. When he did, the evil spell was broken and she opened her eyes, sat up, and greeted the prince with a loving smile. Everyone was instantly happy that Snow White had returned, and they all lived happily ever after.
