Fairy Tales of The Brothers Grimm by Neil Philip
The world of fairy tales is one that we all love to enter. Many of these stories had been told for centuries, delighting children and adults alike with their mixture of magic, mystery, and truths older even than the stories themselves. Here twenty best-loved tales by the famous German storytellers, the Brothers Grimm, are retold for the enjoyment of children today. As well as many old favourites, other tales of magic and enchantment are included, such as The Musicians Bremen, Hans the Hedgehog, and Clever Elsie. Neil Philip's retelling tries to capture some of the immediacy and sparkle of the living storyteller's voice. The language is fresh and direct, and the pace is lively. Isabelle Brent's detailed illustrations decorate the pages beautifully.
Neil Philip is a writer and folklorist. His books include retellings of The Arabian Nights, The Snow Queen and Folktales of Eastern Europe. Isabelle Brent is an accomplished illustrator of many years standing. Among her many books are The Fairy Tales of Oscar Wilde, and Christmas Fairy Tales.
