What's your favourite fairy tale?

Here's what people in London said:

How do you feel about fairy tales?

They’re magical, we love them.

I think that sometimes it's a bit patronising towards children to tell them about, you know, stories about how they should behave. And it’s very much... there are so many stereotypes.

I like them. I think they’re cool. I think it is nice to believe in and read fairy tales.

Did you have any favourite fairy tales or folk tales when you were younger?

Probably Jack and the Beanstalk.

I like the Princess and the Pea. I don’t know why. I just used to like that one quite a lot.

I used to like Billy Goats Gruff: "Who's that clip clip clopping over my bridge?"

In this topic, most people think that fairy tales are quite positive. It does no hard to people, but nice story and good inspiration. Fairy tales tend to give people a sense of hope and encourages people to believe in themselves. If they do so, one day, their dreams will come true. In fairy tales, nothing is impossible because the main character is always lucky to have someone to help them out. In real world, although there is no mother fairy to rescue you from chaos, you should still be able to meet someone who could give you a hand. If not, you should be your own rescuer and have faith in yourself to overcome all that comes to you.
