Book Description

Fairy Tales have been passed down from one generation to another in every culture, but why would the Brothers Grimm change some of their stories to add Christian elements to them? Did you ever see Snow White as Eve in the Garden of Eden?Why are the dwarfs so important to the story? What really happens to Snow White in the end?Why is there so much death in this story?We'll discover the answers to those questions as we go through the story of Snow White and discover the Christianity that is at the heart of this story. This book also includes a full copy of the version of the story by the Brothers Grimm. The original commentary is from a blog post, but has been edited and slightly modified for this version. Many Catholic teachers and parents are concerned about what their kids are learning. I help them develop their knowledge of faith and the use of reason, and show how they work together in stories, so that they can confidently make more informed choices about educating their children.
