cuentos de hadas


Explanation:
al traducir simplemente 'cuentos' no está expresado lo que realmente quiere decir.

This is the best translation, at least in Argentina.

cuentos de hadas / historias de hadas


Explanation:
la traducción más correcta sería la de cuentos de hadas, también en España, pero existe la posibilidad de intercambiar cuentos por historias. Por ejemplo, se diría no me cuentes historias de la mili. Según para donde sea la traducción tal vez sería mejor, porque en centroamérica, cuentos son chistes (jockes).
