I am no literary scholar - just a mom who likes to read - so I speak from my own personal taste when I rate this book.
With that disclaimer, let me say that I really prefer these old, simple, original tales to the Disney and other adaptations of them. Their unsterilized, unadorned honesty speaks to something deep within the human psyche. As strange as it sounds, I found a lot of comfort in these fairy tales, gruesome as some of them are. I was even deeply moved by a few of them. This particular edition has the fascinating illustrations of Maurice Sendak - who more perfect to illustrate Grimm? It was a fun way to revisit some classics that I already knew and be introduced to some more obscure, less well known tales.
My daughter may not quite be ready to hear these (we're still enjoying nursery rhymes), but when she is old enough, this is how I would love to introduce her to the genre. After all, this is the kind of fairy tale I remember vividly from my childhood - dark, dangerous, haunting, lovely.

It is an enchanted volume of sublime grime and sunshine - old fashioned lessons on consequences and healing, responsibility to family love and ill-begotten allegiance to the King. I love the book and can actually imagine them begging me to read, "just one more story, just one more, Grandmama, please, please."

You won't find any pixy dust in this adaptation of German fairy tales. Delving into the strange and bizarre, these stories aren't the kind you want to be reading your 4 year old before they go to bed at night. Simplistic in writing, engaging in content, entertaining in substance, these are great short stories for someone who enjoys the abnormal, the peculiar, and the extraordinary.

Lovely to know this classic 1973 work was reissued. One of my favorite Grimm collections, if not my favorite, words AND text. But the used copies are way overpriced. You can get the 1973 edition in very good shape with dust jacket for one-third the price of this edition - same illustrations, same text. I have no idea why folks are pricing this one so high, except for the fact that Sendak died recently.
Get this book, but look for the 1973 edition. And no, you can't have mine.

This was a book from an old elementary school library's inventory but looked brand new. The condition was just as described and the item arrived right on time. I am so happy with my cute little book. Thank you so much!
