Fairy Tales

A delight to read, The Original Folk and Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm presents these peerless stories to a whole new generation of readers.

Brothers Grimm Selected Tales
by Jacob & Wilhelm Grimm; translated by David Luke

These folktales collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm are among the most memorable stories in European culture - conjuring up a world of spells and bewitchment, outwitted villains and cruel stepmothers, animal bridegrooms and enchanted princesses. Tales such as 'Hansel and Gretel', 'Little Red Cape' and 'The Robber Bridegroom' depict the dangers lurking in dark forests, and others, including 'Briar-Rose' and 'Snow White' show young beauties punished by unforgiving sorceresses.

Hans Christian Andersen: The Complete Fairy Tales and Stories
by Hans Christian Anderson; Erik Christian Haugaard

(translator)


The fairy tales Hans Christian Andersen wrote, such as "The Snow Queen," "The Ugly Duckling," "The Red Shoes," and "The Nightingale," are remarkable for their sense of fantasy, power of description, and acute sensitivity, and they are like no others written before or since. Unlike the Brothers Grimm, who collected and retold folklore, Andersen adopted the most ancient literary forms of the fairy tale and the folktale and distilled them into a genre that was uniquely his own.

The Complete Children's Fairy Tales
by Michael Patrick Hearn


This almost 600 page volume contains all of the fairy tales of George Macdonald written especially for children and young people. Each of these stories is presented in its complete and unabridged form. Macdonald dedicated much of his time and literary genius to the composition of quality books for children, and his work had a major impact on later writers including Lewis Carol, G.K. Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and countless others. Macdonald observed of his own writing that: "I write, not for children, but for the child-like, whether they be of five, or fifty, or seventy-five."

Journey through a fantastical realm in John Ruskin's "The King of the Golden River," a classic fairy tale brimming with magic, greed, and redemption. This enchanting story, penned by one of the Victorian era's most influential writers, takes readers on a whirlwind adventure where love, kindness, and selflessness shine brightest against all odds.
