1) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. This book is full of spellbinding fairy tales with charming illustrations. Absolutely not the Disney version--some parts are not for the squeamish. This was one of my favorite books from childhood and I wish it was still in print.¤ 2) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. I was given this translation 20 years ago as a child, and it is still as timeless and entertaining today as it was then. I will pass the book on to my own children, with my blessing. The tales are well-translated and carefully walk the line without being too violent or explicit for young children, while still being enchanting for older children. Furthermore, all traces of racism have been purged from this translation, a change that I find welcome in my Grimms´ translations.¤ 3) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. Great to hear the original, pre-Disney, versions of these classic tales. Definitely a dark and even violent undercurrent that runs through them, but that makes the arrival into the light all the more satisfying. As usual, Naxos does a fine job. A journey back to childhood when dreams still hovered in the corner of your eye.¤ 4) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. Tha actress reading the stories does a very good job. Unfortunatly this CD version of the stories is very abriged, just the bare bones. The choice of predominatly russian music for German folk tales is a bit odd. Still this is the only version I have experianced so it´s the best I know of.¤ 5) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. THIS IS A LOVELY BOOK WITH CREAM COLORED PAGES, A RIBBON AND WONDERFUL ILLUSTRATIONS. IT IS NOT HOWEVER "BABY PRESCHOOL"
It is for older readers. Nice translation from the German.¤ 6) Hardcover Book Grimm's Fairy Tales by SeaStar. Dwarves, giants, princesses, kings, fairies, and magicians ... all can be found in the enchanting fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm. Twenty-two of the Grimms´ best stories are brought to life in this deluxe edition, from well-known favorites like "Rapunzel," "Red Riding Hood," "Rumpelstiltskin," and "Hansel and Grethel," to lesser-known treasures such as "The Valiant Tailor" and "The Frog Prince." Arthur Rackham´s extraordinary interpretations are beautifully reproduced here in 21 full-color plates and 28 black-and-white drawings that lavishly embellish the pages.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
