Product Description
Book Description
They are the stories we've known since we were children. Rapunzel. Hansel and Gretel. Cinderella. Sleeping Beauty. But the works originally collected by the Brothers Grimm in the early 1800s are not necessarily the versions we heard before bedtime. They're darker and often don't end very happily-but they're often far more interesting. This elegant edition of Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales includes all our cherished favourites-Snow White, Rumpelstiltskin, Little Red Cap, and many more-in their original versions. With specially designed end papers, a genuine leather cover, and other enhancements, it's the perfect gift for anyone looking to build a complete home library. Many of these tales begin with the familiar refrain of "once upon a time"-but they end with something unexpected and fascinating!

Great Gift!,
By Sapna C (BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales (Leather Bound)
I bought two copies of this book; one for a friend who loves the Grimms and one for myself :) I haven't had the chance to read through it yet, but the book definitely has aesthetic appeal and a long list of stories. I have bought other books of this kind as well to give away as gifts and I definitely will be buying more. They are all well-made, look very elegant, and are priced really good! I highly recommend!

Stunning,

This review is from: Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales (Leather Bound)
Originally I was between two leather bound editions, this edition and the Calla Edition. There were so many positive reviews for the Calla Edition that I began feeling swayed but ultimately I went ahead with purchasing this edition because it is the complete works of Grimms Fairy Tales whereas the Calla Edition is not the complete works. I'm not aware of how many tales are in the Calla Edition but this one contains over 200 tales.For $16 I wasn't expecting it to be beautiful, I was mistaken. Between the thick leather cover, the owl gracing the inside cover, the gold pages and ribbon book mark, I was mesmerized. It is just so stunning and simple plus it will look marvelous on any book shelve. Very much recommended: beautiful and stunning. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful

This review is from: Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales (Leather Bound)
This book is great for anyone who's a fan the imaginative storytelling you may remember as a child but with more of an adult spin to it. I would highly recomend this to ANY adult/pre adult for a little relaxing storytime with a slightly darker twist!

WONDERFUL Gift,

This review is from: Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales (Leather Bound)
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. He absolutely LOVED it. He reads a story or two every night. He says it's very complete, the book itself is beautiful, and there's nothing better than the gift of words.He's shown this off to everyone and they're all very impressed by the style of the book. The design is very pretty and well done. The pages are thin and gold, and it even comes with a ribbon to hold your place in the book. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking to buy a copy of Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales. |
