Poll: who Wrote the Book?

[Daniel J. Lewis]

I’m thinking either the Blue Fairy or Rumple.

It could make sense for Rumple because of stories omitted. Such as the fact that the Pinocchio story might have happened after he was imprisoned, and Rumple has had the most to gain from the curse’s being broken.

But I also think the Blue Fairy could have written it because she was called the original magic. She has been around to witness everything, and she may have chosen to omit Pinocchio’s story in order to protect her lies.

Keep in mind that many of the back stories we’ve seen aren’t necessarily in the book:

• Rumple’s history
• Maybe all of Rumple’s story if Henry couldn’t figure out Mr. Gold
• Pinocchio
• Hansel and Gretel’s story was inaccurate (said their father abandoned them)
• Red’s being a wolf was apparently missing if Henry wasn’t afraid of her

maybe it’s some character we haven’t met yet?

That’s a really good point Marilou- whoever has written the book does seem to be limited in the story, maybe to highlight the viewers own understanding of the tales? I hadn’t really questioned the credibility of the book before – but now I really am! Thought it would be someone with first-hand knowledge of most of these stories (Rumple or Blue Fairy) but it could be an interesting twist to have it be a spectator of these events or maybe someone collecting these stories from second-hand sources…Is there a Rita Skeeter in Fairytale land? 😀

Thank you so much. I was so nervous about posting such a different opinion. I was afraid people would start throwing rocks at me.

1)Marilou, I HAVE to say: I love you for making a Harry Potter reference! That’s hilarious 😆
2) We’re oncers. I don’t think many of us would throw rocks at you. Well, except maybe Docxen LOL 😆
3) This is really actually a great theory! We’ve spent so much time focusing on the big, stand-out characters in relation to the book, and the truth is: we really have no idea who wrote the book. Odds are we might not know until seasons from now. The book is obviously important, but there isn’t anything on the show pointing to anyone who could be the writer of the book. So even though we see so many reasons why Rumple, or the Blue Fairy, or another very important character could have written it up, we really have no evidence to support these theories. BUT, maybe that will change in season 2… 😉
