Who Were The Brothers Grimm? (Who Was...?)
Read Free Books and Download eBooks

Known as the keepers of modern-day fairy tales, The Brothers Grimm are as legendary as their stories. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were born in 1780s Germany and were inseparable throughout their childhood. While pursuing their law degrees, the two became fascinated with folktales and folk songs. Together, they researched and published centuries of folklore in their famous early nineteenth-century compilation, Children’s and Household Tales. Thanks to the Brothers Grimm, German folk tales like “Rumpelstiltskin,” “Little Red Ridinghood,” and “Hansel and Gretel" are enjoyed by children everywhere.

I bought this book for my son, age 11, to read for the book festival that his school participate in every year. He was a little unsure of it because he didn't know who the Grimm Brothers where and became even more unsure when I told him that they are the fathers of fairy tales. But once he got reading this book, he got hooked. He wants to read more about them and their stories. For being a boy, he was thinking happy ever after when it comes to fairy tales, but with this book it's not the case. I give this book a great rating, boys that love to read will love this book!
