“Sleeping Beauty” is one of the most famous classical works that revolves around a little princess who a wicked witch manages to kill at the age of sixteen through an enchanted sewing needle. Despite the precautions of her father, the king, the trick succeeds and the girl dies immediately. However, some fairies transform her death into a long sleep, which lasts until the young prince defeats the witch and saves her.
