Ayah reached out for it like her own babies had‚ and she smiled when she remembered how she had laughed at them. She was an old woman now‚ and her life had become memories. She sat down with her back against the wide cottonwood tree‚ feeling the rough bark on her back bones; she faced east and listened to the wind and snow sing a highpitched

When perusing “Little Snow-White” from a feminist perspective it is evident that the purpose of the story is to “shape girls perceptions to conform to a gendered identity through stereotypical characters like the wicked mother and beautiful‚ helpless daughter” (Mikkijoiner).
