About this listen
"The Fisherman and His Wife" is a German fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm. The story revolves around a poor fisherman and his wife who live in a small, miserable hut. One day, the fisherman catches a magical talking fish that claims to be an enchanted prince. The fisherman, being kind-hearted, releases the fish back into the sea.When the fisherman tells his wife about the encounter, she insists that he should have asked the fish to grant them a wish. She sends him back to the sea to find the fish and request a better house.
The story serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of greed and the importance of being content with what one has.
