SNOW WHITE
long time ago, a
child was born to a queen and king and she was called Snow White. When
the queen died, the king married again. This new queen was wicked and
hated Snow white. The queen gave orders that Snow White was to be treated
as a servant.
Snow White grew very
beautiful and one day a Prince riding by, saw her at work and fell in love with
her.
The queen was beautiful
too, and every day she asked her Magic Mirror, “Who is the fairest in the
land?” and the mirror always answered, “You are the fairest one of all”.
But one day the mirror
answered Snow White was the fairest in the land, and in a rage the queen gave
orders to one of her Huntsmen to take Snow White into the woods and kill her.
The Huntsman had a kind
heart and couldn’t do the deed so told her to run away. She fled into the
woods where Seven little dwarfs lived. Their house was small and strange.
Snow White entered the
little house and finding it very untidy, started to clean up. Upstairs
she found seven little beds. She was very tired and stretching out on one
of the beds, was soon asleep.
When the Dwarfs came
home they were surprised to find Snow White and after some argument, decided to
let her stay. She promised to cook and look after them.
The Queen discovered
where Snow White was living and disguising herself as a witch, took a poisoned
apple and set out for the Dwarfs cottage. She gave Snow White the
poisoned apple to eat and as soon as she bit the apple, she sank into
unconsciousness.
Thinking she was dead,
the Dwarfs built a glass coffin and put her in it. For days she lay in the
forest in her glass coffin. One day, the Prince was riding through the
forest looking for Snow White and found her. He leaned over and kissed
her. She opened her eyes and sat up with a smile. Everyone was
happy. The Prince took Snow White to his palace where they were married
and lived happily ever after.
