About this listen

 Dive into a captivating selection of fairy tales crafted by the renowned brothers Jacob Ludwig Carl Grimm and Wilhelm Karl Grimm in the early 19th century. These enchanting stories, while aimed at nurturing the imagination of children, often venture into darker and more intense themes. From the harrowing bargains of Rumpelstiltskin to the precarious adventures of Tom Thumb, the stakes are high, making each tale a thrilling experience. This collection highlights some of the less grim stories, yet they remain infinitely more vivid and engaging than many contemporary tales. The Gutenberg edition from which these stories are drawn features delightful illustrations that enhance the reading experience, while the tale of Puss in Boots hails from an Andrew Lang collection. Join us as we explore the moral lessons and adventurous spirit embedded in these timeless narratives. (summary by Jimmowatt)Copyright Legends & Fairy Tales Literature & Fiction
