Do you have a favorite fairy tale?

Please give one or two with the reasons for your choices. Here are some to get you thinking:

Rapunzel, Cinderella, The Snow Queen. Sleeping Beauty, Hansel and Gretel. The Twelve Dancing Princesses, Beauty and the Beast. The Ugly Duckling, Snow White, Rumplestiltskin. The Frog Prince, The Emperor’s New Clothes, The Red Shoes. The Princess and the Pea, The Little Mermaid. . .

My favorite two:

Beauty and the Beast, because of her unselfishness and his transformation.

By Warwick Goble – Beauty and the Beast, 1913

Cinderella, because of its portraits of both love and justice.

Cinderella by Valentine Cameron-Prinsep

    One of my favorites is Grimm’s “The Twelve Dancing Princesses”, so intriguing, sneaking off at night–such fun, dancing until their dancing shoes are worn out–and the artwork for this story (in my book) is glorious!
