ABOUT Charles PerraultWhile the Brothers Grimm are widely credited with creating the fairy tale as we know it, Perrault actually wrote stories called Le Petit Chaperon Rouge, La Belle au Bois Dormant and Cendrillon a full 200 years before. In 1695, aged 67, he wrote Tales and Stories of the Past with Morals, a series of moral tales designed to prompt the reader to reflect on the dilemmas presented to the protagonist, which were well-known from folklore even then. The volume contained the story now known as Mother Goose, alongside perennially recognized titles such as Sleeping Beauty, Puss in Boots, Blue Beard and Cinderella.
