Seven Dwarfs
The Seven Dwarfs are fictional dwarfs in the 1812 fairy tale Snow White
by the Brothers Grimm and other renditions and adaptations. They live in
a tiny cottage and work in the nearby mines. Snow White stumbles upon
their house after being told by the Huntsman to flee from the Queen's
kingdom. The Seven Dwarfs return home and immediately notice someone has
snuck in, because the house has been cleaned. During their loud
discussion, they discover the sleeping Snow White. She wakes up and
explains to them what happened. The rest is history... (Wikipedia)
