The fairytales that I’m really thinking of using are Hansel & Gretal because of the message that it gives off to be honest Another fairytale that I was planning on using is Little Red Riding Hood . I plan on using Hansel and Gretal as my primary source and little red riding hood as my secondary source . I’m using these two stories to show you hate things don’t always end up with the same outcome . Some things are meant to happen differently. While I was on the BMCC database I couldn’t find anything that really caught my eye . Which made it easier for me to choose these two fairytales because as a kid I would watch movies on them and read them a lot . But now that I’m an adult I could really go back and read and understand both with a different perspective and kind of break down the story more & get into deeper thought with them .

Hello Caitlin, i share the reason that you’ve chosen “Hansel and Gretel” and “Little Red Riding Hood” as your primary and secondary sources respectively.These fairytales offer contrasting outcomes showing the varied nature of storytelling. Your personal connection to these stories from childhood now viewed through an adult and how you can learn and apply the analysis from the fairytales to your life or that you didn’t you have done already.
I have to agree that now we are adults and older we can understand the fairytales we use to watch and read as a kid with more detail and if we rewatch or reread we can break the stories down more and possibly find additional morals and lessons we did not understand as a kid but understand as adults, because I feel the same way with my favorite fairytale. I would rewatch it for the nostalgia but when I did I noticed additional things I did not caught as a kid.
