This paper aims to explain how elements of literary narratives known as fairy tales are still disseminated among young readers. To do so, it applied the focus group method, in which school-age teenagers gathered to discuss the topic “fairy tales” based on their personal impressions and previous knowledge. It was possible to verify that elements of fairy tales are still present in television shows, movies, and popular books. However, there is some distance from the classic texts of traditional fairy tales. Therefore, this paper contributes to the field of Education by elucidating the permanent status of fairy tales in common reading and cultural consumption practices of the group of young readers surveyed.

Palabras clave : fairy tales; young readers; literature and media.
