    When he finally went to visit the Queen, he saw that she was cuddled against his dungeon wall. Her red hair was a complete mess compared to what her usual hairstyle looked like. The once breathtaking dress that she always wore, was ruined to the point that it looked worse than rags on a beaten slave. The last thing that he had taken in blissfully when observing her, was that of her teary, hazel eyes. They held no hope, faith, and stubbornness, like she was known for when ruling the Golden ones.…

    Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm was popularly known as the “Grimms Brothers”, were characterized as one of the most dramatic writers in the 19th century. They were categorized by their short, simple sentences, colloquial language, and their well-organized approach to craft writings. Their writing was entitled Little Snow White, it was released in 1937 and it was about Snow White, a princess who falls into a deep, death-like rest after taking a bite from a poisoned apple. My impression about this narrative was an innocent little girl who had her step-mother hating her because of her beauty and kind-heart. The Little Snow-White by the Grimms Brothers is a fairy tale that reveals the goodness and the beauty of a little princess who is loved by all, however,…
