5.0étoiles sur 5 I loved this book., Fév 18 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: The Red Fairy Book (Paperback)
When I was in third grade, my school had the Red, Blue, and Yellow Faerie books, and as I was an avid reader I read all 3 of them. The one I continued to check-out and reread over and over again however was The Red Fairy Book. I have fond memories of many hours spent turning the pages of this book, and admittedly, it could be that I am looking back thru rose colored spectacles, it made such an impression on me that I am now collecting the whole fairy book series.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Fascinating Collection of Traditional Fairy Tales, Oct. 8 2007
Par L. Bourque (Windsor, Ontario) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Red Fairy Book (Paperback)
We have both the Blue Fairy Book and the Red Fairy Book, and my 8-year old really enjoys hearing stories from both of these.

The Red Fairy Book, originally published in 1890, is the second of Andrew Lang's series of books, which collect traditional fairy tales from around the world. Most of the tales in this book are European in origin. There are some in here that a reader will recognize (Snowdrop for example, is the story we know usually as Snow White), and many more that are less familiar or even unknown.

It's a very interesting collection. Some of the stories are quite fascinating and even bizarre. There is a lot of entertainment value here, and as I mentioned my daughter really enjoys reading from this book--she asks for this (and the Blue book) often.

However I would like to point out that if these stories are to be read to children, a parent should read the book FIRST and decide which stories would be acceptable. Numerous tales contain a degree of violence which is somewhat shocking to our modern sensibilities. At the time when these stories originated, violence was more a part of life and so these types of details were included in stories. Children, who do not visualize these details as adults do, are often not as bothered by them as we might anticipate--however, it would still be wise for a parent to err on the side of caution here and read the stories themselves first.

To give one example, in the Russian story "The Wonderful Birch," a witch turns a young woman into a sheep--then makes herself look like the young woman, brings the sheep home to the woman's husband, and tells him to slaughter the sheep and eat it. Which he does, not knowing it is his wife! Later in the story the witch's daughter has her arm broken, her eye knocked out, and her foot crushed.

To me, as I'm sure to many readers, it is very interesting to get the unadulterated, uncensored versions of these old tales as they were originally told. I don't mind the violence overmuch (although there are a few stories that I have skipped in reading the book to my daughter), and I think this is really a wonderful collection. But I just wanted to make clear to potential readers that the fairy tales in this book are NOTHING like the whitewashed Disney versions, or even the versions you will find in a modern fairy tale book.

I would also add that the quality of this Dover edition is very good, and that it contains the original black and white illustrations, many of which are quite beautiful.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great, Juil 5 2002
This review is from: The Red Fairy Book (Paperback)
I originally heard about the Red Fairy Book in the Annotated Hobbit, it was listed as one of J.R.R. Tolkiens influance's.
Anyways I found it and started to read it, and I must say it is the best fairy tale book I own. It's much more lush and interesting than Grimms, though Grimm is great, this book is so far my favorite.
Quite possibly the best fairy tale book ever written.
