Read the original Grimms’ fairy tales before they were sanitized in modern retellings

Before modern retellings softened and sanitized them, the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm were far from trivial. Their stories carried real stakes, clear moral vision, and Christian imagery woven quietly into the fabric of the narrative. They trusted children to grapple with darkness and light, knowing that such stories help young readers name evil and recognize goodness when they see it. This beautifully illustrated volume gathers thirty original Grimms’ Fairy Tales in one place. Alongside beloved classics like “Hansel and Gretel” and “Rumpelstiltskin,” readers will discover lesser-known stories such as “Iron Hans” and “The Devil with the Three Golden Hairs.” Every page invites wonder, reflection, and return. Let your children encounter fairy tales that captivate and respect their imagination. Get 20% off your copy of this delightful illustrated collection at wof.org/grimm.
