About this listen

We are sure you know the story of Snow White. The fairest in the land, crazy step-mom, seven short kings and a prince who fell in love with a corpse. But you haven’t heard Coco read you the Brother’s Grimm version, and you don’t want to miss it.

.

We start with a brief history of the Snow White story, discussing several different versions from different countries, even an origin story (dubiously) rooted in truth! Then we dive right into the tale of a no-talent, inefficient evil queen he’ll-bent on murdering a seven year old. Heartwarming.

.

Follow us through the woods and over the seven mountains to the little cottage where the dwarves generously allow Snow White a home, in exchange for slave labor. Listen in dismay as the evil queen, whose only skill seems to be applying makeup, dupes this poor child (yeah, we think she’s still seven) repeatedly, using the same line each time.

Rejoice each time the dwarves save her, despair each time they fail to protect her, and listen to the end for the big, hot, dance finish!

.

Follow that up with a Happy Ending with Betsy… you know you want to.
