A beautifully illustrated, lyrically translated collection of the fables that have enchanted children and adults for nearly two centuries. Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow-White, Hansel and Gretel, Little Red-Cap (a.k.a. Little Red Riding Hood), and Briar-Rose (a.k.a. Sleeping Beauty): the stories of magic and myth gathered by the Brothers Grimm have long been part of the way children--and adults--learn about the vagaries of the real world. Part of the Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library, this elegant edition includes nearly two hundred stories as Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm originally set them down: bold, primal, just frightening enough, and endlessly engaging.
