Is the fisherman a fairy tale?

It is a China folk story, but the origin of fairy tale is a folk story. Like the Grimm fairy tales we see today, it is a summary of German folk stories. The story of the fisherman was once included in The Story of 365 Nights edited by Lu Bing, dedicated to children. The story is fantastic in content, showing the determination and courage of the Chinese nation to resist imperialist aggression and bureaucratic oppression, which has a good guiding role for children. You can also call it a fairy tale.
