Many of these tales were published in English in 1909, the Brothers Grimm tales in this book were published separately in 1920 with illustrations by Arthur Rackham (1867-1939).

"Household Tales" was published in 1812 by the brothers Grimm and has been entertaining the masses ever since. However, it was known not just for "Little Red Riding Hood." Popular tales like Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, are just some of the examples of well-known modern stories that had their beginning in the Grimm brothers' collection of fairy tales. Over the years, various editions of Grimms' "Fairy Tales" were released, obscuring the magic of the original. This 1884 translation by Margaret Hunt from German to English contains all of the original tales, allowing you the closest you can get to that magic, unless you know German

Grimm's Fairy Tales is a collection of fairy tales first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. The collection is commonly known in English as Grimms' Fairy Tales. The first volume of the first edition was published in 1812, containing 86 stories; the second volume of 70 stories followed in 1815. For the second edition, two volumes were issued in 1819 and a third in 1822, totalling 170 tales. The third edition appeared in 1837; fourth edition, 1840; fifth edition, 1843; sixth edition, 1850; seventh edition, 1857. Stories were added, and also subtracted, from one edition to the next, until the seventh held 211 tales. All editions were extensively illustrated, first by Philipp Grot Johann and, after his death in 1892, by German illustrator Robert Leinweber. The first volumes were much criticized because, although they were called "Children's Tales", they were not regarded as suitable for children, both for the scholarly information included and the subject matter. Many changes through the editions - such as turning the wicked mother of the first edition in Snow White and Hansel and Gretel (shown in original Grimm stories as H nsel and Grethel) to a stepmother, were probably made with an eye to such suitability. They removed sexual references-such as Rapunzel's innocently asking why her dress was getting tight around her belly, and thus naively revealing to the fairy her pregnancy and the prince's visits-but, in many respects, violence, particularly when punishing villains, was increased.

The fairy tale is a poetic recording of the facts of life, an interpretation by the imagination of its hard conditions, an effort to reconcile the spirit which loves freedom and goodness and beauty with its harsh, bare and disappointing conditions. It is, in its earliest form, a spontaneous and instinctive endeavor to shape the facts of the world to meet the needs of the imagination, the cravings of the heart. Classics included in this volume include: One Eye, Two Eyes, Three Eyes, The Magic Mirror, The Enchanted Stag, Hansel and Grethel, The Story of Aladdin, This Story of Ali Baba, The Second Voyage of Sinbad the Sailor, The White Cat, The Golden Goose, The Twelve Brothers, The Fair One With the Golden Locks, Tom Thumb, Blue Beard, Cinderella, Puss In Boots, The Sleeping Beauty In the Wood, Jack and The Bean-Stalk
