Through the years I have learned to not judge- that there are always two sides of the story. Of course this is hard to do and I am not a master of it yet. For example, I used to think that the three little pigs were just innocent porkers until I read The True Story of the Three Little Pigs book by Jon Scieszka. Now tonight I found out that there was more behind the story of Sleeping Beauty than I was told at story time. We finally watched Maleficent. First of all, what a beautiful movie- the set, characters, animation - just gorgeous! And then there is Angelina with her high cheekbone, full lips badness. I think Maleficent should be the representative of all us older women who may seem mean and heartless but deep down are still beautiful creatures fighting the evil that lurks in the hormonal forest. But I digress - it was a relief to know that Maleficent had a caring heart and has been misunderstood all these years. Now I want to know more about Snow White and her friends and whether Hansel and Gretel's stepmom served time for child abandonment. Maybe those movies will come out soon.
