Brothers, sisters and parents
Hop-o’-My-Thumb begins with hard news: a poor woodcutter leads his seven sons into the forest to lose them. The smallest marks the way home with pebbles, and later swaps nightcaps for gold crowns to save his brothers from the ogre.
In The Seven Ravens a sister learns, years later, why her brothers were turned into birds. She walks to the sun, the moon and the stars to find them, and drops her parents’ ring into the last little cup so that they will know her.
In The Tale of Peter Rabbit, Peter disobeys his mother, loses his jacket and shoes in Mr. McGregor’s garden, and is put to bed with chamomile tea, while Flopsy, Mopsy and Cotton-tail have bread and milk and blackberries for supper.
Momotaro, the Peach Boy shows a family that is not made by birth: an old couple who longed for a child open a huge peach, and a little boy steps out. He goes off to fight the devils and comes home to live with them in peace and plenty.
