1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing edition, 2 April 2009
By Miss K (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Grimm's Fairy Tales (Puffin Classics) (Paperback)
The Grimm fairy tales are probably some of the best loved and most well-known fairy tales of all time. This little book however does not do them justice. The best thing about this book is the glossy front cover. Other than that there are no illustrations inside the book, the text is packed tightly into the pages and the stories have been edited so you don't even get an official Grimm versions.

If you are on a budget or looking for something compact and don't mind the above, then this book is fine. If however you are looking for something more satisfying that has full versions of the stories and is illustrated too, I would very highly recommend 'The Annotated Brothers Grimm' which is a much more substantial hardback book that I think will be appreciated by adults and children alike. The book also includes a very interesting introduction by Maria Tatar who over the years has carried out much research on fairy tales and therefore provides an authoritative voice on the subject.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fairy Tales With A Slight Touch Of Horror., 14 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Grimm's Fairy Tales (Wordsworth's Children's Classics) (Paperback)
This book bring the reader back in to the world of Fairy Tales, Each tale has a slight twist, which brings the stories to life with a touch of darkness. The way the tales where originally told. If you think fairy tales are all happy and "Fairy" then read this and you mind will be changed, Well worth reading.
