Grimm Legacy
Is there a better antidote to a lonely teen existence than a dose of fairy-tale magic? Elizabeth has yet to make friends at her tony Manhattan private school, and she feels equally alone at home with her remote father and taskmaster stepmother. Then Elizabeth's teacher recommends her for a job at the New York Circulating Material Repository, and as Elizabeth befriends the other pages, she begins to learn that fairy tales aren't just fantasy and that many of the special collections' artifacts belong to her favorite childhood stories, including the magic mirror from Snow White.

Children's tales collection of German origin fairy tales were first published in 1812 by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. It had popularised fairy tales which had in part been taken from the Italian fairy tale writers G. Basile and G.-F. Straparola. The text of this book is based on the edition of "Grimm’s household tales with the author’s notes" by Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm, translated into English by Margaret Hunt (G. Bell & Sons, London, 1910, 564 Pages). The Margaret Hunt’s translation had been done very true and close to the German original.

These are NOT the fairy tales of Unicorns and Once Upon a Barbie - they are somewhat darker! From Cinderella to Rapunzel these ORIGINAL versions of the classic Fairy Stories are not only surprising – they’re shocking.
