Abstract
The article reports on a descriptive study with a group of English Language and Literature freshman students in a Turkish university. The study examined the effects of composing fairy tales on learners’ attitude towards writing classes. An attitudinal questionnaire displayed that some students did not like writing in English earlier but integrating fairy tales to writing courses brought about a substantial difference in their opinions and practice of writing. It can therefore be proposed that English language teachers modify their traditional frame to a novel one incorporating fairy tales in teaching writing to have their students benefit from the writing practice more.
