A good collection of Grimm's stories. It was interesting to read about Pullman's choices in adding certain elements.

GREAT stories. Couldn't read the whole thing though. I will probably continue to read it on and off for several years. It's hard for me to read short stories like this all at once.

Grimm's Fairy Tales are a classic dark staple for many. Filled with interesting stories and life lessons.

The tales were extremely basic and seemed to get more and more repetitive as I read on.

This just wasn't for me.
