Washington Irvingâ??s â??The Legend of Rip Van Winkleâ?? is a fairytale about a lazy man with a shrewish wife who slips off for a day of idle pursuits when he encounters the â??wee folk of the Catskills â?? playing â??ninepinsâ?? or Bowling. He drinks some of their alcoholic beverage, falls asleep and wakes up 20 years later. He returns to the Village to find everything has changed. The American Revolution has taken place and all of his children are adults.
The main problem in Rip Van Winkle is his tendency to avoid responsibility and work, leading to conflict with his wife and his community. This leads to his isolation and eventual disappearance into the mountains, where he falls asleep for twenty years.
The main idea is to not take the people around you for granted.
