critique essay

Here is another very short fairy tale from Grimm's Fairy Tales entitled 'The Water Nixie'. This a tale of two young children who were playing beside a well and fell in it. The nixie appeared and took them to her place and made them work using tools that made the jobs very hard. The children had to find a way to escape this magical place and get home somehow. They used a few tools from a brush to a comb to a mirror to keep the nixie from catching them. I am not sure of this one, but I think the lesson would be to be careful when playing around wells or any place where water is present for one never knows what may be lurking in the depths. This one could teach about trusting others as well as maybe teaching about 'Stranger Danger'. Please share your ideas on this one. I would appreciate it very much.
