The Grimm’s Complete Fairy Tales is a must have title for any collector of books. Best of all, it can be read in multiple sittings or if you’re really keen, over a few nights. However given the classic nature of these stories, it’s also a book that you will come back to again and again. Lastly this book makes for the perfect family heirloom and reading some of these fairy tales in their classic form is quite special.
Many of the Grimms' folk tales have enjoyed enduring popularity. The tales are available in more than 100 languages and have been adapted by filmmakers including Lotte Reiniger and Walt Disney, with films such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Sleeping Beauty. During the 1930s and 40s, the tales were used as propaganda by the Third Reich; later in the 20th century, psychologists such as Bruno Bettelheim reaffirmed the value of the work, in spite of the cruelty and violence in original versions of some of the tales (which the Grimms eventually sanitized).
