Google Doodle honours Charles Perrault, the father of Fairy Tales

Perrault was born in France in 1628, and worked as a government servant before he wrote Fairy Tales. It is said that since the fairy tales became older, they lost much of their meaning as they were often tweaked from their original form by other people.
In 1695, aged 67, he wrote Tales and Stories of the Past with Morals. These are known as folklore today and several movies have been made based on these stories. The volume contained the story now known as Mother Goose, alongside recognized titles such as Puss in Boots, Blue Beard and Cinderella, and lesser known stories like Ricky of the Tuft and Little Thumb.
