Published in 1697, Charles Perrault’ s Tales of Mother Goose first appeared as Histoires ou contes du temps pass?s, avec des moralit?s.

Perrault is considered to be the inventor of the fairy tale, and based his works on folktales and stories written by earlier writers, but updated them to reflect literary and social themes popular
in 17th-century France. Perrault’ s best-known stories include such timeless classics as “ Cinderella,” “ Sleeping Beauty,” “ Red Riding Hood,” and “ Puss in Boots,” which continue to be updated and adapted for modern audiences, as well as for the stage, ballet, and film.
