Snow White: A Classic Tale in English
Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom nestled between rolling hills and dense forests, there lived a beautiful princess named Snow White. Her skin was as white as snow, her lips as red as blood, and her hair as black as ebony. She was known throughout the land for her kindness and gentle nature.
Snow White's stepmother, the Queen, was the fairest of them all, but she was also vain and jealous. Every day, she would visit her magic mirror and ask, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?" The mirror always replied, "My Queen, you are the fairest of all." But one day, it answered, "Fair Snow White is fairer than you."
Hearing this, the Queen became enraged. She ordered a huntsman to take Snow White into the forest and kill her. However, the huntsman took pity on the young princess and let her go. Alone in the woods, Snow White stumbled upon a quaint little cottage belonging to seven dwarfs. They welcomed her warmly and allowed her to stay with them.
Each day, Snow White helped the dwarfs around their home, keeping it tidy and preparing meals. In return, they taught her many things about life in the forest. Despite the joy she found with the dwarfs, Snow White could not forget her stepmother's cruelty.
One fateful day, the Queen discovered Snow White's whereabouts through her mirror. Disguising herself as an old beggar, she visited the cottage and offered Snow White a poisoned apple. Trusting her stepmother, Snow White took a bite and fell into a deep sleep.
The dwarfs were heartbroken when they found Snow White unconscious. They placed her in a glass coffin and guarded her day and night. One day, a prince passing by the cottage saw Snow White and was instantly smitten. He kissed her gently, and the poison apple dislodged from her throat, awakening her.
Reunited with the prince, Snow White left the dwarfs behind and returned to the palace. There, she forgave her stepmother and lived happily ever after, surrounded by love and kindness.
