Fairy Tales

As a child, I really loved the fairy tales but now that I am older, I do not remember what the acutal story was. The one story I really remember was Cinderella. I have always beea fan of romace and was even one when I was young. The story of a lower class girl getting prince charming is what every little girl wants. The prince who saves poor Cinderella from her evil step family was really the picture of " the perfect man" when I was young. Even now people are making many different versions of this story becuase so many people dream about this type of relationship and its formation. But know that I look back on it, I see that there is no deep relationship, that is needed in a romanic relationship, between Cinderella and the Prince because everything was based off of looks.
Another part I loved was the clothes Cinderella wore. The were wonderful big beautiful pricess dresses at the end of the story, she even looked great in her working clothes. Oh and the glass slipper, I swear I looked for one everywhere after i read the story. Everything was just so magical, sparkly, and girly. I just loved it.
Lastly, I am a huge lover of all animals and in this story Cinderella's friends were animals. It was wonderful to see that instead of the media's typical dangerous animals, or the harming of creatures displayed, Cinderella was kind to them. In away it taught children to befriend all creatures and treat them as you friends.
