Fairy Tales from Grimm

It is said the Brothers Grimm opened up a world of goodwill with their stories, where heroes and heroines are truly rewarded, where giants and dwarfs and birds and animals are their friends. It is said, also, that Arthur Rackham has kept the fairy world alive for generations of children with his art. Here is a splendid combination of the two -- the best loved Grimms' fairy tales, adorned by an artist who was a master of fantasy. Arthur Rackham's illustrations for the Brothers Grimm brought him lasting fame. From the beautiful to the bizarre, from the weird to the wonderful, his fine line drawings are striking portrayals of the Grimm stories. This beautiful edition presents sixty stories and over sixty-five of Rackham's illustrations, including sixteen full-color plates. Timeless as entertainment, this is a story-time treasury for young and old alike. 1 The Golden Bird 2 Hans in Luck 3 Jorinda and Joringel 4 The Bremen Town Musicians 5 Old Sultan 6 The Straw, the Coal, and the Bean 7 Briar Rose 8 the Dog and the Sparrow 9 The Twelve Dancing Princesses 10 The Fisherman and His Wife 11 The Wren and the Bear 12 The Frog Prince 13 The Cat and Mouse in Partnership 14 The Goosegirl 15 The Adventures of Chanticleer and Partlet 16 Rapunzel 17 Fundevogel 18 The Valiant Trailor 19 Hansel and Grethel 20 The Mouse, the Bird, and the Sausage 21 Mother Hulda 22 Red Riding Hood 23 The Robber Bridegroom 24 Tom Thumb 25 Rumpelstiltskin 26 Clever Grethel 27 The Old Man and His Grandson 28 The Little Peasant 29 Fred and Kate 30 Sweetheart Roland 31 Snowdrop 32 The Pink 33 Clever Elsa 34 The Man Among the Thorns 35 Ashenputtel 36 The White Snake 37 The Wolf and the Seven Kids 38 The Queen Bee 39 The Elves and the Shoemaker 40 The Wolf and the Man 41 The Turnip 42 Clever Hans 43 The Three Languages 44 The Fox and the Cat 45 The Four Clever Brothers 46 The Lady and the Lion 47 The Fox and the Horse 48 The Blue Light 49 The Raven 50 The Golden Goose 51 The Water of Life 52 The Twelve Huntsmen 53 The King of the Golden Mountain 54 Doctor Know-All 55 The Seven Ravens 56 The Marriage of Mrs. Reynard 57 The Salad 58 The Youth Who Could Not Shudder 59 King Thrushbeard 60 Iron Hans
