Who was the author and illustrator of Sleeping Beauty?

Answer 1

There have been many versions of Cinderella's story dating as far back the first century BC where it was first historically recorded by a Greek historian who went by the name of Strabo.

The most notable version was written in 1697 by the French author Charles Perrault. This was the first book to include a pumpkin, glass slippers and Cinderella's wish-granting fairy god mother.

He published the tale of Cinderella in a book of Fairy Tales he entitled The Tales of Mother Goose (translated from French). In this same book, he published the tale of Sleeping Beauty.

Answer 2

The two most well known versions of the tale are La Belle au bois dormant, "The Beauty asleep in the wood" by Charles Perault and Dornröschen, "Little Briar Rose" by the brothers Grimm. In both cases they were adapting one or more existing folk tales whose origins are lost in the mists of time (as is typical of nearly all folk tales), thus we do not know the original author(s).

Answer 3

It is not known who actually first wrote the fairy tale but Charles Perrault was the first to publish it in his Tales of Mother Goose.
