A Brief Summary
A beautiful girl, Snow White, takes refuge in
the forest in the house of seven dwarfs to hide
from her stepmother, the wicked Queen. The Queen
is jealous because she wants to be known as "the
fairest in the land," and Snow White's beauty
surpasses her own. The dwarfs grow to love their
unexpected visitor, who cleans their house and
cooks their meals. But one day while the dwarfs
are at their diamond mine, the Queen arrives at
the cottage disguised as an old peddler woman
and persuades Snow White to bite into a poisoned
apple. The dwarfs, warned by the forest animals,
rush home to chase the witch away, but they are
too late to save Snow White from the poisoned
apple. They place her in a glass coffin in the
woods and mourn for her. The Prince, who has
fallen in love with Snow White, happens by and
awakens her from the wicked Queen's deathlike
spell with "love's first kiss." |
