“Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” is a captivating and magical story that proves good always triumphs over evil. The main heroine is a beautiful princess. The plot tells of her wicked and jealous stepmother – the queen – who, blinded by Snow White’s beauty and natural charm, orders a huntsman to get rid of the girl. Thus, Snow White’s life is in danger. However, fate leads her to seven dwarfs with whom she begins a new life in their small cottage…

 

The main idea of the fairy tale is that no matter how hard evil tries, good will always prevail. Its moral lesson is to teach not to envy others’ achievements but to be kind, sincere, and compassionate. The story also reveals that cruelty and envy are destructive forces that eat away at a person from within.
