Description

"Once upon a time in a fairy tale world, There were magical mirrors and golden slippers, Castles and fields and mountains of glass, Houses of bread and windows of sugar. Frogs transformed into handsome Princes, And big bad wolves into innocent grandmothers. There were evil queens and wicked stepmothers, Sweethearts, true brides and secret lovers. In the same fairy world, A poor boy has found a golden key and an iron chest and We must wait until he has quite unlocked it and opened the lid. A classic collection of timeless folk tales by Grimm Brothers, Grimm s Fairy Tales are not only enchanting, mysterious and amusing, but also frightening and intriguing. Delighting children and adults alike, these tales have undergone several adaptations over the decades. This edition with black-and-white illustrations is a translation by Margaret Hunt." Read more

  • Grimm stories are great, editions not so much.
I think we are all well aware of what the stories are basically about. These are not Disney versions, of course. They don't necessarily live "happily ever after" and many of the stories are downright cruel and frightening. That said, I've been in search of the ultimate version of this book. As of the date of the writing of this review, I have not yet found that. Because I collected a number of popular Kindle versions (all of these reviews are based on Kindle versions), I thought I'd compare them here so you can choose which one best fits your needs. A few of things to know first. 1. I view illustrated books on my desktop, so when I talk about illustrations, imagine them being much larger than on a tablet. 2. When I refer to an "ATOC" I mean an active table of contents. That is, a TOC (table of contents) that has clickable links so you can go directly to a title story (or chapter) in the book. To me, that is crucial in any Kindle edition. 3. Why am I linking to each one and not saying which one is the edition you're looking at right now? I realized that some editions contained reviews that had the exact same link as other reviews in some books. In the comments of this review, I will provide a link to illustrate what I mean. In any case, the point is that you can see the link for the exact edition I was speaking of so it's very clear. 4. I rated the book 5 stars and that's because of the original text of the Grimm brothers' writing. Each edition would get a different rating, which is listed in it's comparison review. --- Grimm's Fairy Tales (Illustrated) This edition has an intro, biographies of the brothers and illustrations. It has 4 main issues that detract from its usefulness: 1. It contains only 62 of the original 211 stories which is unacceptable, at least for me. 2. The images are very washed out so they are not clear at all. In fact, I'd say most are unclear. They are also not as large as one would expect. I would imagine them being near-useless on a tablet. 3. There is neither an ATOC nor TOC. The best you have is a list of stories it contains (without page numbers) and that is all. 4. Finally, paragraphs are only single spaced without indentations. For this reason they run together. That does not mean that the book is one large paragraph, it's just that there is only a single line break and not a double. For sentences that end at the left side of the page, it will look like one long paragraph. This one gets 3-stars at best. Its best feature is that it appears to not have many spelling or grammatical typos, which run rampant in Kindle editions. This could be a better book if they would simply reformat it and make an active TOC. Grimm's Fairy Tales This edition has an ATOC but no other special features such as an intro, biographies nor any illustrations. It is simply bare bones prose. This version is similar to the one above in that it has single spaced paragraphs, but thankfully each paragraph has an indentation so it is easy to spot new paragraphs. I do like the text formatting better than the one above. It highlights rhymes very well. It's main downfall is that it too only contains 62 of the original 211 stories. This one also only gets 3-stars. There is no feature here that is all that worthy. You're missing most of the stories and you get no extras. Grimm's (Complete) Fairy Tales (Annotated) This edition has an ATOC, introduction and biographies of the brothers. It however does not have any illustrations, sadly. That would make it near perfect, except for the annotated thing, which I'll come back to. This edition is the most exhaustive of the three. It has 210 of the original 211 stories, which means if you want all the stories, this is the book for you. Most of its text formatting is better than the others as well. Paragraphs are double spaced, but the thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't highlight rhymes like the previous version. The one very serious problem I have with it is its claim of being annotated, when it very clearly is not. There's not a single annotation throughout the book. I'm not sure why they claim it to be so. Perhaps the print edition is annotated? In any case, I can say with the utmost authority that the Kindle edition is definitely not. What a disappointment! This one gets 4-stars simply because it does contain all of the stories. It looks like one story may be missing (I'm not going to go through all 211 to see which it is, but it could be that one was combined or a number was missed. Either way, it's the most complete version. --- All in all the one I find most useful (so far), even if it's lacking, is the so-called "annotated" version. If you're wanting illustrations, then I would get both that one and the first one. The second one is, in my opinion, the least useful. The truth is that at the time of this writing there is not yet a perfect edition in Kindle. Perhaps one day. If you find one (that is low priced) let me know in the comments and I'll take a look at it. Hopefully this helped you in your choice. If not, please let me know how I can improve it. ... show more

  • Brothers Grimm Fairy tale compilation - Awesome!
awesome fairy tails of the brothers Grimm. All condensed into one big book, my daughter hasn't put it down since she got it I don't think. Rated it moderate because the print was so small otherwise was perfect as it was rated.

  • Fairy-tales familiar and not.
This is one of those cases where you've heard of something for so long that you think you've already experienced it, but then you realize that you haven't so it give it a try and it's not what you expected...Does that make sense? Everyone is familiar with some aspect of the Grim Fairly Tales, but how many of us have actually read any of the original stories. I fan a fairytales for as long as I can remember, I decided it was time for me to right a great wrong I had committed against myself. I had never read any of the Grim stories until recently and I was shocked, amazed, weirded out, and a little disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I loved these stories, they were awesome, but they were not what I think of as fairytales. I have been so brainwashed by mainstream modern thinking that I almost wouldn't allow myself to enjoy these stories for what they truly are, brilliant. I think the main two reasons I didn't give this book a five is: 1. that I would never actually read these to any child under the age of 10. If a nine year happened to pick these up and love them, good for them, but I'm not planting crazy dreams into the minds of any kids anytime soon...oh and fables these are not; not many good lessons to be learned here. 2. Some of the stories seemed to overlap or repeat. I know that in this day and age, everyone borrows ideas from everyone else, but I figured back then, these guys should have been able to come up with a collection of stories that didn't all sound the same...but of course I'm exaggerating. Most of the stores were quite original, but the little bit of repetition there was, drove me crazy. I must give the brothers Grim and whoever influenced them, some French guy I can think of, a clap of praise for inspiring and influencing storytellers for centuries beyond their time. I might, just for fun, one day write my own versions of these wonderful stories. I mean, they are now permanently stained onto my brain, I might as well do something with them...Truthfully, I'd recommend this to anyone ten or over. ... show more

  • classic
wonderful collection of classics... I would call these almost fabels, like Æsop. Some are sort of difficult to comprehend, perhaps due to language or politic & thought patterns of the time. Syntax was odd, then too I'm a schizo and mine is usually off.
