| I always kind of liked Rumplestiltskin. And there's a similar scottish one called Whapitty Stoory (spelling open to interpretation...) which was in a book I used to read in school.
I just bought a book of both Grimm fairytales and Hans Christian Anderson so ill tell you later  _________________

| Has anyone read Robin McKinley's Beauty? It's a take on Beauty and the Beast and is much closer to the original story that the Disney version. Although I still love the Disney one. _________________ Between the click of the light and the start of the dream.
