I think this should be called fairy tales every child should know once they've grown up. Some of the stories may want vetting for younger children. Although I thoroughly enjoyed this book I would stick to the modernised fairy tale versions. It is fascinating to see where some of the stories stemmed from and how they have been altered.It's funny how the stories you "knew" via cinema/TV are quite so different from their real versions. Some are crud, some others more deep, some just have no happy ending, and nevertheless, almost everybody only knows the Disneysied happy versions. What a pity.
Remembered stories of my youth.Yes, so many stories just as I remembered them, some I had never heard, and some different than I remembered. This is a great collection of fairy tales, saving the best for last!
Yipes, and to think I enjoyed these as an impressionable child! What were the Brothers Grimm, and my beloved Walt Disney smoking?
Very classical and easy to understand.
Good selection of classic and some more unknown fairytales, even if some are a tad dark lol
The Light Princess was definitely my favorite story.
