About this book

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm set out to preserve the oral folklore of the German lands, gathering tales from storytellers, friends, and old books. First published in 1812 as a modest set of eighty-six stories, the collection swelled across later editions into more than two hundred. Here are the versions that shaped how the world imagines Cinderella, Snow White, Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, and Little Red Riding Hood, often darker and stranger than the softened retellings that followed. Enchanted forests, cunning animals, wicked stepmothers, and hard-won justice run through every page. Meant at first for scholars but embraced by children everywhere, the tales became one of the most translated books in the world. This free PDF and EPUB edition collects the classic stories in a single volume.

Available edition: text of Project Gutenberg eBook #2591. The cover is an original BDeBooks design. The PDF has 252 pages; the EPUB is reflowable. Project Gutenberg credits and license are kept.
