Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Snow White was making the beds. 
This time, the door was open a little, and Snow White saw a woman with some apples.
"A beautiful apple for a beautiful girl," said the woman.
Snow White went to the woman and took an apple.

The baby was born between the King and the Queen. The baby was so beautiful, so she called "Snow White". But soon, Queen died. King married again new Queen. She was so beautiful, but she was mean. Every day she asked to magic mirror, "Who is the fairest of them all?" And every day the mirror said, "You are the fairest of them all." But Snow White became beautiful, and mirror came to say "Snow White is the fairest of them all." The Queen was angry, and ordered huntsman to take Snow White into the forest and kill her. But huntsman couldn't kill her, so he set her free in the forest. Soon, Snow White came to a little house. The house is house of seven dwarfs. They welcomed her. However, the Queen didn't give up to kill her. The Queen would try to kill Snow White by any means. One time, the Queen disguised apple seller and visited Snow White. There are poisons in these apples. She bit it and fell into eternal sleep. But! The meeting with one prince changed her fate.

It's so nice story. I'll never forget contents of this story. But, it was the first time to know the Queen's many ways to cheat Snow White. I knew only one way using poisoned apple.

A little bit of me thinks that if the Queen changes her mind, she can live happily with Snow White. But it was good for Snow White to be happy. This story is a timeless classic.
