The Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm by Jacob GrimmMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This illustrated version of selected tales of Brothers Grimm is beautiful! Each story has an interesting introduction as to the history of that particular tale. It also has biographies of each artist included in the book. The stories themselves are interesting: some are kind of weird, some are violent, and a lot of them have abrupt endings. However, my own children loved hearing me read them aloud and seemed to appreciate the lack of sugar coating on the stories. And the illustrations... I cannot say enough how much I loved them! This is definitely a keepsake type of book!
