The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault

"The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault" by Charles Perrault is a collection of classic fairy tales written in the late 17th century. This anthology features famous stories such as "Little Red Riding Hood," "Cinderella," and "Blue Beard," among others, which have been beloved for generations. Each tale intertwines moral lessons with enchanting narratives, highlighting themes of transformation, curiosity, and the trials of love. The opening of this collection sets the stage for the magical worlds Perrault creates. It begins with "Little Red Riding Hood," where a naive young girl is sent to visit her grandmother, unwittingly encountering the cunning Wolf. This tale quickly establishes the dichotomy between innocence and deception, foreshadowing the dangers that come from straying from the path of caution. The subsequent story, "The Fairy," introduces a young girl who is rewarded for her kindness with the gift of jewels and flowers with every word spoken, in stark contrast to her ungracious sister, who is cursed to spew snakes and toads. Through these initial narratives, Perrault masterfully illustrates the interplay of virtue and vice, setting the tone for the whimsical and moralistic storytelling that follows.

Contents: Little Red Riding-Hood / The Fairy / Blue Beard / The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood / The Master Cat or Puss in Boots / Cinderilla or The Little Glass Slipper / Riquet with the Tuft / Little Thumb / The Ridiculous Wishes / Donkey-Skin
