                                                   "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christian Andersen.

Once upon a time evil troll created a magic mirror. Bad things became good, good things became bad in it. The mirror broke into small pieces.

A small piece of the magic mirror got in Kai'e eye. The boy became evil and rube.

Literature. Part five.

My favourite fairy tale is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs by Brothers Grimm.

I like this fairy tale because in it a kind wins evil. Main character a young girl Snow White has a father and jealous stepmother. Woman has the magic mirror which says the evil Queen that girl more beautiful than she.

Stepmother wants to kill her stepdaughter but has failed. After this the girl was living with Seven Dwarfs in a house that stood in the forest. The magic mirror still told to Queen that princess Snow White more beautiful than she.

Evil woman wanted to become better than her stepdaughter. She again tried to kill Snow White. At last when envious given to girl a poisoned apple. She ate it and died.

The magic mirror said that Queen the most beautiful. Jealous stepmother was very glad.

When the Seven Dwarfs returned to home they were sad about Snow White's death. They laid her in a glass coffin.

But once upon a time prince who travelled not far from the Seven Dwarfs' house, he saw princess in coffin. When young man kissed a beautiful girl she opened her eyes, evil magic was gone.

Some time later prince and princess were married and lived long and happy!
