Classical Fairy Tales

Classical fairy tales are traditional stories passed down through generations, often featuring fantastical elements, magical beings, and moral lessons. They usually involve characters like princes, princesses, witches, and animals, and explore themes such as good versus evil, bravery, and kindness. These stories originally served to entertain, educate, and preserve cultural values, frequently ending with positive resolutions. While many are well-known today, they often have roots in oral storytelling and were later written down, shaping storytelling traditions around the world.
