Once upon a time, a little girl was born that was exceptionally beautiful. Due to jealousy, a wicked witch wanted her dead. She ended up being raised in fosterage in the forest by magical dwarfs, but eventually the witch found a way to poison her and put her in a coma resistant to aging. Eventually, Prince Charming showed up, kissed the girl and woke her up, and slew the evil witch.

But then, this article isn't about "Literature/SleepingBeauty"...

A queen wishes for a child with lips as red as blood, [[RavenHairIvorySkin hair as black as ebony, and skin as white as snow]]. She gets her wish and names the child Snow White, but promptly dies and is replaced by a WickedStepmother who prides herself on her great beauty. Every day the stepmother asks her magic mirror:

She is too beautiful for them to bury her in good conscience, though, so they build a glass coffin and take turns keeping guard. Fortunately for everyone involved, she [[FauxDeath does not decay]], but remains so fresh and beautiful that a passing prince [[{{Squick}} just has to have her]]. The dwarfs are reluctant at first, but eventually let him take the glass coffin. Thanks to a clumsy servant, the coffin is jolted, dislodging the piece of apple and reviving Snow White. Apparently the prince likes her almost as much when she's awake, and they marry. Hopefully, she's a bit older than seven by now, but you never know.

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (or simply "Snow White" for short) is one of the best known of [[Creator/TheBrothersGrimm the Grimms']] stories, although it existed in numerous countries before being compiled into their ''Children's and Household Tales''. It was one of the early victims of their {{bowdleris|e}}ing edits; they changed the antagonist from Snow White's biological mother to a WickedStepmother.
