Summary "The Little People of the Snow" by William Cullen Bryant is a mythical story written in the early 1870s. This poetic work is characterized as a children's fairy tale, emphasizing themes of innocence, nature, and moral lessons. The tale explores the interaction between human children and magical beings, particularly during the enchanting, snow-filled winter season. The narrative centers around a young girl named Eva, who encounters a charming snow maiden while playing outside during winter. Eva, drawn by her warmth and beauty, follows the snow maiden beyond the boundaries set by her mother, ultimately entering a mystical realm inhabited by the "Little People of the Snow." The story takes a somber turn when Eva, tired from her adventure, succumbs to the cold and tragically falls into a death-like slumber. Despite her parents' desperate attempts to revive her, Eva passes away, leading to a haunting farewell that affects both her family and the magical beings of snow. With her loss, the Little People of the Snow vanish from human sight, signifying the end of their enchanting presence in the mortal world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
