FAIRY TALE

Fairy Tales?I do not believe that there is one single child in this world who does not know a story about a princess, castles, and a charming prince. These stories live in the heart and mind of people all around the world.When Walt Disney decided to create films about fairy tales he opened a enchanted world for millions of people who do not know read, now the princess can moves is alive, she is real, can move, dance and sing , and you can be a princess or prince too, why not?

According to Wikipedia Fairy Tale is:
A fairy tale is a type of short narrative that typically features such folkloric characters, such as fairies, goblins, elves, trolls, dwarves, giants or gnomes, and usually magic or enchantments.The stories may nonetheless be distinguished from other folk narratives such as legends (which generally involve belief in the veracity of the events described)^[1] and explicitly moral tales, including beast fables.

Originally most of these beautiful tales were not so beautiful, they would be cruel sometimes, They were told with the purpose of teach children, but they used to do it by fear. In these tales we have advices and morals like, be obedient to your parents, do not take anything a strange offers to you....
The most recent movie based on these original tales the most recent is "Red Riding Hood"
