Jack and the Beanstalk
or
The Princess and the Pea?
Please give reasons why you think what you chose is a good fairy tale.

No comparison. Jack and the beanstalk is far better in many ways.
Princess and the Pea is very one-dimensional.
Jack & the beanstalk is a very complicated story about wisdom and stupidity - or perhaps naivete. About courage in climbing the beanstalk. About fear & creativity - the fearsome giant - about thundering repetitive words that remain forever in your brain: "fee fi fo fum, I smell the blood of a Englishman", and so on.

The princess and the pea.
It's a fantasy story which gives hope for girls to be a princess. However, I think Jack and the beanstalk is on par with Princess and the pea.

The Princess and the Pea is not a fairy tale

The Princess and the Pea. I think the both stories are good but this one has better idea in it. It could be nice longer story too. Like a short story for example.

Jack, at least he took some initiative, even if he was robbing and murdering his neighbors. Did the Princess even do anything besides lay around and complain?

That would depend on what point you are trying to make.
