Week 14: Reading Notes Part B: Snow White

Snow White: Source

This is the story of snow white and how she left her home because of her stepmother, the queen. When Snow White was born, her mother died. Her father soon remarried to an evil Queen. The Queen had a mirror and everyday she would look at it and ask who the fairest of them all was. The mirror would always answer back that she was the fairest of them all, but one day it said Snow White was. The Queen became incredibly jealous and sent a huntsman to hunt Snow White down and kill her. The Huntsman saw Snow White in the woods and spared her life after seeing she was innocent. He brought back the heart of an animal to trick the Queen into thinking he killed Snow White. Snow White then found herself entering a home in the woods and fell asleep.
