I definitely need to buy the huge tome with all the tales eventually. This version had the following ones:
"The Goose-Girl," "The Little Brother and Little Sister," "Hansel and Gretel," "Oh, If I Could but Shiver!", "Dummling and the Three Feathers," "Little Snow-White," "Frederick and Catherine," "The Valiant Little Tailor," "Little Red-Cap," "The Golden Goose," "Bearskin," "Cinderella," "Faithful John," "The Water of Life," "Thumbling," "Briar Rose," "The Six Swans," "Rapunzel," "Mother Holle," "The Frog Prince," "The Travels of Tom Thumb," "Snow White and Rose Red," "The Three Little Men in the Wood," "Rumpelstiltskin," and "Little One-Eye, Two-Eyes, and Three-Eyes."
Some had a very similar concept, and that took away from my experience.

Nonnullos apologos grimmianos latine legi. Editio, quam legi, a Sigride Albert(a) in Saraviponti anno millesimo nongentesimo octogesimo octavo post Christum natum edita est. Pleraeque fabulae tantum mediocres erant, sed nonnullae iucundiores erant. (Fabula "de vitae spatio temporis" mihi maxime placuit.)

Maybe that's I need to do. I need to learn how to shudder like his brother. He always does everything right.

It is really interesting to read the origins of our current day fairy tales which all have sweet happy endings. This is one book that I felt I had to buy since I consider myself a writer. I especially love re-telling fairy tales so this was a must have. I love the Barnes and Noble edition, it has nice paper and is lightweight so I can carry it around to read and take notes in.
Good read!
But the little red hood... Was not as I remembered... I think I read the Perrault version when I was a kid, but I can't be sure!
