This delightful selection of 45 stories from the original two volumes of Grimm's Fairy Tales contains a mixture of well-known stories, such as "Cinderella", "Briar-Rose' (better known as "Sleeping Beauty") and "Little Snow-White", as well as some highly entertaining, but lesser known tales like "The Devil with the Three Golden Hairs", "The Mouse, the Bird and the Sausage" and "The Hare and the Hedgehog". Wicked witches, nasty step-mothers, handsome princes and beautiful princesses abound, along with cunning soldiers, deceitful devils and intelligent animals. Fantasy takes precedent over reality, but morality, truth and justice always prevail in the stories that were originally collected during the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries by the brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm from all corners of what we know today as Germany and occasionally beyond.
