Clever Rosebriar by LJC (G)
Fandom: Fairy Tales: Original folk tale
Characters: Rosebriar
Length: 1314 words
Author Website: at AO3
Why this must be read: Although many fairy tales are transformed to the point that they are quite original, this one truly is an original fairy/folk tale. Written for a Yuletide request, this has the obvious feel of an old-fashioned story that anyone could read to their kids by the fire. Especially to little girls, who don't often get a role model heroine who doesn't look like a Disney Princess.
Rosebriar isn't a classic beauty; she's rather plain, has freckles and some crooked teeth. All in all, she's not going to get by on her looks. She is, however, clever with a good heart and willing spirit. As a result she not only saves herself from poverty, but her father as well. She does it by rolling up her sleeves to do the work that needs doing, and capitalizing on her talents.

I've really been enjoying your recs all month long. The stories have been consistently original and excellent, and I've gone on to read additional stories in this category by several of the recced authors which have been equally wonderful. Thank you.
