From the dust jacket:
Here, in one volume, is a beloved classic of Western literature-the complete fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. In this new edition of more than 200 tales, readers of all ages will discover their old favorites The Sleeping Beauty, Rumpelstiltskin, Hansel and Gretel, Snow White and others–among little-known treasures like The Juniper Tree, Clever Gretel, King Thrushbeard and The Singing, Soaring Lark.
Here is all the magic, adventure, humor and romance anyone could ask for, in stories of princesses and poor girls, of thieves, witches and handsome princes, of foxes and geese, swans and ravens, cats and mice, donkeys and devils.
These magnificent tales, which date back to the dawn of storytelling among the people of northern Europe, were first compiled by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm and published in Germany in 1812 and 1815. Since then, selections from these stories have appeared and reappeared in countless translations throughout the world. It is a rare event, however, to offer Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales in a single large volume. Enter this world of enchantment and you will return to it time and time again.
