In a historical moment that sees more and mo-re increasing the time of our day dedicated to the computer and diminish the pleasure that comes from reading, comes the need to under-stand the aspects on which a lever to reverse this trend. The objective of this work is to un-derstand, through a theoretical overview, what are the ways to capture the attention and cu-riosity of the readers, such as strategies for stimulating creativity and imagination, and what are the reasons to support the success and - at times - the immortality of some texts. The fairy tale is identified as the privileged ob-ject of this attempt of theoretical development, as it reveals literary harbinger of strong stimu-lation of growth for young readers and, at the same time, symbolic narrative of life for adult narrators. Through a journey from reality and leads 'elsewere', we have analyzed both the 'charms' that generate fairy tales (the emotions of the mind, the 'infinite gaps' revealed by rea-ding the 'polyphony-over' of the fairy tale ), is another story of the fairy tales, which creates a strong sense of charm to the 'uncanny' literatu-re. We show in this way, the enormous educa-tional potential, including the function pro-xemics, that a written purchase when you dive into the narrative stage, a 'frame narrative' full of shared meanings, yet personal, unique and unrepeatable.
