Fairy tales are alive today even though they were originally make-believe.
There really wasn’t a Cinderella. Or Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, or even Bugs Bunny.
Though Bugs was inspired by a real-life bunny rabbit, so there is that.
No, fairy tales are all about over there.
The evil queen that tricks Sleeping Beauty into biting the apple. The evil stepmother who was so mean to Cinderella and tried to keep her from shagging the prince.
We are not supposed to think fairy tales are real — we just read them to our children before they go to bed at night and hope they don’t have nightmares.
