This project started years ago as an index of all the submissions for a fairy tale retelling contest hosted by Target called "Once Upon Now." In the process of gathering and categorizing all the stories, I wound up with a handy little index of popular fairy tales, folk tales, legends, and myths.

Whether you're looking to create a fairy tale retelling of your own or you just want a quick-and-dirty overview of these classic stories, you'll find here a very accessible index to get you started. Enjoy!

P.S. If you know of a good retelling of a story I describe here, please drop a link in the comments!
