Fairy tales hold a special place in children’s hearts right up to adulthood, especially those that become a favorite. Fandoms have also become more popular over favorite stories, fairy tales included. Here are some students who helped celebrate National Tell a Fairy tale Day which is on Feb. 26, by sharing with us their favorite tale:
“My favorite fairy tale is Hercules. It’s special to me because it talks about how one man is facing the impossible and succeeding in the end. I heard this story when I was nine years old,” Tristan Cayot said.
“My favorite fairy tale was the Little Mermaid, I loved this fairy tale because when I was a little girl I wanted to be a mermaid, I remember dressing up as one of the characters,” McKynzie Wyatt said.
“I remember loving watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs when I was little. The first time I specifically remember seeing it was when I was four years old,” Bailie Gooch said.
“Peter Pan is special to me because it was that dream of adventure away from home that I’ve had since I was a child. I was about six years old when I first saw the movie and became kind of obsessed with it. I dressed up as Tinkerbell for Halloween when I was little because I was so in love with the movie,” Madison Parrott said.
“The three little pigs hold a special place with me because it talked about working hard and building a stable foundation like the last pig instead of being lazy and not putting much effort into my work. The first time I heard this story was when I was very little and my grandpa was putting my siblings and me to sleep. He said it was his favorite book to read.” Sebastian Escalante said. Biology major from Keller Texas.
