The Wild Swans

(title will take you to Wikipedia for story)

Ever since I read this fairy-tale in a collection we have I've been really intrigued by it. It's a wonderful story about a girl saving her brothers and it's always strung some chord in me. I love all the common ones, but  I also love really different and not as known, but I still love it! It's beautiful so I really recommend you trying to read the original tale or some retelling. Below you can find some links to retellings of the story. 

The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale

She can whisper to horses and communicate with birds, but the crown princess Ani has a difficult time finding her place in the royal family and measuring up to her imperial mother. When she is shipped off to a neighboring kingdom as a bride, her scheming entourage mounts a bloody mutiny to replace her with a jealous lady-in-waiting, Selia, and to allow an inner circle of guards more power in the new land. Barely escaping with her life, Ani disguises herself as a goose girl and wanders on the royal estate. Does she have the pluck to reclaim her rightful place?
