Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm: A New English Version (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

The acclaimed retelling of the worldâ€™s best-loved fairy tales by the #1 New York TimesÂ bestselling author of The Golden Compass and The Book of Dustâ€”now in paperback, and with 3 new tales!

Two centuries ago, Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm published their first volume of fairy tales. Since then, such stories as â€œCinderella,â€ â€œSnow White,â€ â€œRapunzel,â€ and â€œHansel and Gretelâ€ have become deeply woven into the Western imagination. Now Philip Pullman, the New York TimesÂ bestselling author of the His Dark Materials trilogy, makes us fall in love all over again with the immortal tales of the Brothers Grimm.

Here are Pullmanâ€™s fifty favoritesâ€”a wide-ranging selection that includes the most popular stories as well as lesser-known treasures like â€œThe Three Snake Leaves,â€ â€œGodfather Death,â€ and â€œThe Girl with No Handsâ€â€”alongside his personal commentaries on each storyâ€™s sources, variations, and everlasting appeal. Suffused with romance and villainy, danger and wit, Pullmanâ€™s beguiling retellings will cast a spell on readers of all ages.
