So begins the tale of Snow White and Rose Red, a story about being kind to all beings - animals, dwarfs, people, and even your little sister. The story, recorded by the brothers Grimm from an old German folktale, tells of two young sisters who encounter talking bears and grumpy dwarfs. It teaches us to be patient, to be kind even to those who are ungrateful, and to appreciate the efforts of others. Moreover, the story is beautifully written, and weaves a tale of enchantment, conjuring up images of small cottages, copper kettles, spinning wheels, and friendly woodland animals.
