Abstract

An exploration of how ethical dilemmas are depicted in juvenile fictions versions of Snow White. Adaptations of this classic fairy tale walk a fine line between editing the story to be child friendly and maintaining the story’s integrity. In this project, particular attention will be paid to how children’s books alter Snow White to use the moral dilemma of the Huntsman and the final punishment of the Evil Queen as opportunities to teach lessons about justice.
