Briar Rose, also known as "Sleeping Beauty," is a classic fairy tale recorded by the Brothers Grimm in their collection of folktales. The story centers around a beautiful princess named Briar Rose, who is cursed by a wicked fairy to fall into a deep sleep on her 16th birthday. The curse is eventually broken by a prince, who awakens Briar Rose with a kiss and they live happily ever after.
The tale of Briar Rose is likely based on a number of older folktales and myths, and has been retold and adapted countless times over the years. In the version recorded by the Grimm Brothers, the curse is placed on Briar Rose by an evil fairy who is not invited to the princess's christening. The wicked fairy declares that on her 16th birthday, Briar Rose will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into a deep sleep. The curse is later modified by a good fairy, who reduces the length of the sleep and adds that a prince will eventually awaken Briar Rose with a kiss.
As the princess grows up, she is kept unaware of the curse, and on her 16th birthday, she discovers a spinning wheel and pricks her finger as the curse predicted. She immediately falls into a deep sleep, along with everyone else in the castle. A thick briar hedge grows up around the castle, protecting it from the outside world and keeping the princess and her subjects in a state of suspended animation.
Years pass, and a prince learns of the beautiful sleeping princess and the curse that has been placed upon her. He makes his way through the briar hedge and finds Briar Rose in her chamber, where he awakens her with a kiss. The curse is broken, and Briar Rose and the prince fall in love and marry.
The story of Briar Rose is a classic fairy tale that has captured the imagination of generations of readers. It teaches the importance of forgiveness, the power of love, and the dangers of envy and revenge. It is a timeless tale that continues to be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
Briar Rose by Jacob Grimm
However, she was not dead, but had only fallen into a deep sleep; and the king and the queen, who had just come home, and all their court, fell asleep too; and the horses slept in the stables, and the dogs in the court, the pigeons on the house-top, and the very flies slept upon the walls. When he touched her with the kiss Little Brier-Rose opened her eyes, awoke, and looked at him kindly. Everyone one was there. There are some which are so well known, but the origins are not. A quick story, but a classic that 1 I rather enjoy and 2 was all the better for the narrator's pleasing voice and skillful work in distinguishing one character from another. There were thirteen of them in his kingdom, but, as he had only twelve golden plates for them to eat out of, one of them had to be left at home.
BRIAR ROSE (Grimm’s Kinder und Hausmärchen) by The Brothers Grimm
And the horses in the court-yard stood up and shook themselves; the hounds jumped up and wagged their tails; the pigeons upon the roof pulled out their heads from under their wings, looked round, and flew into the open country; the flies on the wall crept again; the fire in the kitchen burned up and flickered and cooked the meat; the joint began to turn and frizzle again, and the cook gave the boy such a box on the ear that he screamed, and the maid plucked the fowl ready for the spit. The instant that she felt the prick she fell onto a bed that was standing there, and she lay there in a deep sleep. As such Huh, well I never. Adults might find this out of step with the Disney version that we are all familiar with, but very young children are going to appreciate this gentler version as they are really all a This a sweet, gentle retelling of the classic tale of Sleeping Beauty. Then he came at last to the palace, and there in the court lay the dogs asleep; and the horses were standing in the stables; and on the roof sat the pigeons fast asleep, with their heads under their wings. The dull hush of fireless breath, Waiting to age up.
This was a story that I wouldn't have children read by themselves. The couple throws a feast in celebration and appreciation for the gift of their new daughter - Briar Rose - but make the mistake of leaving one of the kingdom's thirteen fairies off the guest list. In the castle-yard he saw the horses and the spotted hounds lying asleep; on the roof sat the pigeons with their heads under their wings. In the door there was a golden key, and when she turned it the door sprang open, and there sat an old lady spinning away very busily. And when he came into the palace, the flies were sleeping on the walls; the spit was standing still; the butler had the jug of ale at his lips, going to drink a draught; the maid sat with a fowl in her lap ready to be plucked; and the cook in the kitchen was still holding up her hand, as if she was going to beat the boy. A rusty key was in the lock, and when she turned it the door sprang open, and there in a little room sat an old woman with a spindle, busily spinning her flax. But as soon as he kissed her, Briar-rose opened her eyes and awoke, and looked at him quite sweetly.
Possibly read aloud to them to get the story across but honestly I think the tales that are more modernized are more appropriate for children. But scarcely had she touched the spindle when the magic decree was fulfilled, and she pricked her finger with it. But this one is pretty close to what the movie is. Meanwhile the gifts of the Wise Women were plenteously fulfilled on the young girl, for she was so beautiful, modest, good-natured, and wise, that everyone who saw her was bound to love her.

Now, as she had not been asked to the feast she was very angry, and scolded the king and queen very much, and set to work to take her revenge. Meanwhile, the gifts of the Wise Women were plenteously fulfilled on the young girl, for she was so beautiful, modest, good-natured, and wise, that everyone who saw her was bound to love her. It was the basic story you expect from Sleeping Beauty, which very few variations. If you liked this story, leave me a comment down below. And then the marriage of the king's son with briar-rose was celebrated with all splendor, and they lived contented to the end of their days. In the castle-yard he saw the horses and the spotted hounds lying asleep; on the roof sat the pigeons with their heads under their wings.
The roast stopped sizzling.

Sleeping Beauty is a fantasy genre written by the Grimms Brothers and illustrated by Maja Dusikovia. German philologist and folklorist Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm in 1822 formulated Grimm's Law, the basis for much of modern comparative linguistics. The King and Queen wanted to invite all the fairies but only had a certain amount of places so they decided to invite all but one and did not tell her.
He also knew from his grandfather that many princes had come and tried to penetrate the thorn hedge, but they had become stuck in it and died a sorrowful death. The horses, too, went to sleep in the stable, the dogs in the yard, the pigeons upon the roof, the flies on the wall; even the fire that was flaming on the hearth became quiet and slept, the roast meat left off frizzling, and the cook, who was just going to pull the hair of the scullery boy, because he had forgotten something, let him go, and went to sleep. In the castle yard he saw the horses and the spotted hounds lying asleep, on the roof sat the pigeons with their heads under their wings. However, they did not succeed, for the thorns held firmly together, as though they had hands, and the young men became stuck in them, could not free themselves, and died miserably. My favorite painting or picture was where the prince finds Thorn Rose on the bed, sleeping.
