The Turnip Princess by Franz Xaver Von Schonwerth
A volume, in which, the holy trinity of fairy tales - the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, and Hans Christian Andersen - becomes a quartet.
These eminently enjoyable tales offer a rich new take on the material of the Grimms and Andersen.. The tales are vigorous, direct, and less artful then those of the Grimms, suggesting greater authenticity, closer to the source * Library Journal *
