Grimms' fairy tales - Jacob Grimm

Grimms' Fairy Tales are the most famous and enchanting collection of fairy tales ever written down and published.
For the past two centuries, these delightful stories, gathered together by brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, have entertained and frightened children and adults alike.
The lives of Tom Thumb, Cinderella, Rumplestiltskin and the Frog Prince form part of our common heritage: they stimulate the imagination and the heart, and linger at the back of our minds for a lifetime.
They are funny, disturbing, wise and compassionate.
They speak of joy and terror, happiness and revenge, love and violence.

Arthur Rackham's masterly illustrations have all been hand-coloured by Barbara Frith, one of Britain's leading colourists.

Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound hardback gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Collector's Library are books to love and treasure.
