I met this man out on the road And he told me, "Son, I'll take you where you wanna go You see the devil, he has his ways It's not the life you lead, it's about the price you'll pay". And then he told me once, you'll ever speak my name And then he told me twice and let me slip away

Fairy tales satisfy the play spirit of childhood. Folk-tales are the product of a people in a primitive stage when all the world is a wonder-sphere. Most of our popular tales date from days when the primitive Aryan took his evening meal of yava and fermented mead, and the dusky Sudra roamed the Punjab. All these fancies are pervaded with that purity by which children seem to us so wonderful," said William Grimm.

Christopher Peruzzi loves fairy tales. His first published short story, "The Undead Rose" was based on "Sleeping Beauty". The statue, a jeweled representative of a former prince, is housing the soul of the prince. All through the summer season the birds would nestle near the prince’s head and live there during the rains. Among the birds that stay with the statue, there is a swallow who longs to see the world and want to migrate to all of the wonderful sites in Egypt. We discover that the prince had never experienced happiness. As he looks out over the city, he sees that people are suffering because they have no money. Like Grimms Fairy Tales, there is a nebulous piece of BS saying that if you sacrifice yourself for the greater good, your reward will be in heaven. We also see that nastiness in the protagonist is punishable. Nastiness in the supporting characters is just fine.

Some of the tales have been labeled lessons in practical Christianity by Pearson, but I suspect that Wilde would rather say imaginative treatment than Christian lesson, however Christian the moral of a particular tale might be. Indeed, Wilde warns his readers (and himself) against making the moral of the tale too blatant or sententious. That is always a very dangerous thing to do, said the Duck. And I quite agree with her. Dangerous or not, Wilde still makes moral affirmations in his fairy tales, perhaps even at the expense of imaginative treatment. Generally, like Aesop’s fables, the tales reveal levels of human folly and wisdom while they also uphold virtuous behavior. Wilde’s tales are not, however, designed to encourage faith or advocate Christianity.
