The fairy tale plays a very important role in western history and culture. It always known as the reflection of the actual life of human beings. It is a popular form of literature, although it was defined as bedtime story for children by many people. However, there are scores of adults like to read and analyze fairy tales as well and at the same time many authors began to rewrite the fairy tales.
