The Three Feathers and Other Grimm Fairy Tales

In The Three Feathers and Other Grimm Fairy Tales, translator Catherine Riccio-Berry has remained faithful to the original German folk tales while also demonstrating her own keen ear for the language of playful storytelling. These eighteen carefully selected narratives are among the most engaging to be found in the Grimm Brothers’ extensive collection. In addition to four classic stories—Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, Rumpelstiltskin, and Cinderella—this modernized and highly accessible translation also includes a delightful variety of lesser-known tales that range in tone from silly to moralizing to outright violent.
