The story of Snow White is classic and there is an abundance of people who believe how the original tale goes. However‚ it is highly doubtful that people actually do. The first tale of snow white titled The Little Snow White by the Grimm Brothers is much more macabre in nature compared to the light hearted and kid-like retelling Snow White written by Roberto Piumini and illustrated by Anna Laura Cantone.

Generally‚ fairy tales focus on children and are made for the sake of entertainment. However‚ this poem is meant for females‚ particularly housewives‚ based on the line “mistaking the footprints of your own / children for those little men?” (9-10).
