Short review. It is always interesting to read the source material before Disney got a hold of it. This is fairly true to the story but it is a pre-modern novel. There is not the internal motivation that is described like what modern readers expect. So when it says she does something to save her father, we don't know why she made the decisions, or what made her father worth saving or her history of trama and abuse, etc.

It is a short story, but worth the 15 to 20 minutes it will take to read it.
