b00kdrag0n40 's review for:
The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales
by Jacob Grimm, Wilhelm Grimm
Some stories were quite interesting, but I found the collection as a whole repetitive. There are only so many stories about picky princesses who put suitors through ridiculous obstacles, or princesses disguised as serving girls, or youngest sons who are smarter and more noble than their older brothers, that one can read. I think the stories are best read separately rather than as a collection. I did get a chuckle out of several tales, though, and even read a few to my 7th graders who were amused by endings such as "and so they all died together." I'm glad I read the tales, but the book will likely sit decoratively on a shelf for quite some time before I pull it down again.
