[I have always loved fairy tales due to their magical plots and fantastical settings. I grew up watching these tales, as adapted into Disney movies and television programs, continuing to enjoy them into adulthood. Over the years, I have come to prefer fairy tale reimaginings, such as those that turn the antagonist into the protagonist (i.e., Gregory Maguire’s Wicked novel, 2007) and those told from a feminist pespective (i.e., anthologies compiled by Zipes, 1989, and Walker, 1996).]
