Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow-White, Hänsel and Gretel, Little Red-Cap (Little Red Riding Hood), and Briar-Rose (Sleeping Beauty) are only a few of the more than two hundred enchanting characters included in this volume. The tales are presented just as Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm originally set them down: bold, primal, just frightening enough, and endlessly engaging. <p/><i>With black-and-white illustrations throughout<br>Illustrated by Josef Schari / Commentary by Joseph Campbell</i><br><i>Part of the Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Among the few indispensable, common-property books upon which Western culture can be founded . . .
