ne day a beautiful, kind queen had a baby girl. ‘Look at my daughter. Her hair is as black as the night sky, her lips are as red as cherries and her face is as white as snow,’ said the queen. ‘Let’s call her Snow White,’ said the king.

What about you? Answer the questions. What colour are your eyes? What colour is your hair? 4

Colour the flowers.

One day a prince was in the forest. He saw the glass box and looked inside. He fell in love with Snow White. ‘Can I take her with me to the palace?’ asked the prince. ‘Yes,’ said the oldest dwarf. ‘You’re a prince and she’s a princess. And you’re good and kind.’ The dwarfs began to carry the glass box. But the glass box fell and broke. The piece of apple fell out of Snow White’s mouth. Snow White opened her eyes and saw the prince.
