Tales are a terrific genre. Thanks to them, at the first stages of life, a person learns simple truths, learns to memorize and analyze the plot. Let us turn to a brief summary of the work of A. Pushkin, which sets out the main events from the book.
(482 words) The king and queen say goodbye to a long separation. Nine months “waiting, waiting from morning till night” of her husband’s wife, but a dear friend does not appear. And on the most Christmas Eve, God gives a woman a daughter. In the early morning, the newly made father returns. Empressed by childbirth, the queen of "admiration did not bear" and died.
A year has passed. The hostess of the chambers was another woman. The new queen was outwardly beautiful, but black in her soul: terribly proud and autocratic. She possessed a magic thing - a talking mirror. “My light, a mirror!”, The lady turned to him to find out that she was unrivaled in beauty.
Meanwhile, the young princess grew and flourished. Her father found her bridegroom Elisha. And the girl lived happily until the stepmother’s mirror recognized her beauty first on Earth. The queen became angry and ordered her hay girl Chernavka to rival her rival. Draft was supposed to lead the princess into the forest, tie and leave the hungry wolves. Caught with the young princess in impassable thicket, the peasant woman spared her.
The girl remained in the forest and after a while came across a beautiful tower. The princess did not find the tenants. She cleaned the house, flooded the stove and waited. At noon, the hosts appeared in a choir: seven brothers of the heroes. The girl apologized for coming to them uninvited. The heroes called her their sister and left to live in a tower.
Every day, early in the morning, the brothers left for the forest. The princess remained for the mistress. So the days flew by. Once the brothers suggested the girl to choose one of them as husbands. But the princess refused, because she is already the bride of Elisha and will be faithful to him.
Meanwhile, the queen decided to turn to the mirror again. She replied that her stepdaughter is still the most beautiful in the world. The woman was angry. She called Chernavka, and she confirmed that the princess was alive.
One morning the young princess sat by the window and spun yarn. An old woman came up to the gate, asking for alms. The dog began to bark at her, as if sensing something was amiss. The merciful heroine drove the dog away and gave the beggar food. The old woman thanked her with a bulk apple.
The girl returned to her occupation. An apple beckoned to her, and the princess bit off a piece of it, but then fell dead. The heroes returned. They sensed trouble when they saw a restless dog. They entered the tower and saw their sister dead. The dog ran in with the heroes and died when he bit a poisoned apple. The heroes carried the lifeless body of the princess to the cave and put it in a crystal coffin. The mirror pleased the queen with her answer, she is again the most beautiful in the world.
Prince Elisha set off in search of his bride. He did not find his beloved anywhere. The prince turned to the sun and the month, but even they did not see the princess. Only a powerful wind could help him. He pointed to Elisha at the cave, in which a crystal coffin with the body of his bride sways on six chains.
The prince rushed to the mountain. A miracle happened in the cave. The coffin from the blow of Elisha crashed, and the girl came to life. They went home.
The insidious queen again turned to the mirror. It again called the princess the most beautiful. Enraged, the queen broke a mirror, ran out of the palace and saw her rival alive. She did not immediately bear it and died. After her funeral, the wedding of Elisha and the princess took place in the palace.
