Tonight, we’ll read “Snow White”, a 19th-century German fairy tale which is today known widely across the Western world. Snoozecast first aired this story back in 2020. In 1812 the Brothers Grimm published it along with many other folktales they collected. It wasn’t until exactly one century later, in 1912, that the seven dwarfs were given individual names in the Broadway play “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”. Walt Disney's 1937 film “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” chose different names for the dwarves, still. This particular Grimm story, which is commonly referred to as "Snow White", should not be confused with the story of "Snow-White and Rose-Red", another fairy tale, similarly named, also collected by the Brothers Grimm.
