The Fairy Tales by Jan Pienkowski

I was at the library yesterday, and I was interested in fairy tales. Now I am not talking about "Beastly" or anything of that sort! I am talking about fairy tales that were told when we were younger. Now, nowadays, people who remake the fairy tales for younger kids, they sugarcoat them. I mean, for example, Disney's "Snow White". They say that she fell to the poison apple. In the true story, Snow White died 2 times then the apple came along. And this book, is actually stories from The Grimm Brothers. So we already know it's the real deal. Besides this, the book is beautifully pictured and it's 185 pages. It also shows how creepy and scary these fairy tales are. I would buy this book, and it's rare that I would buy a book. Plus it's a good read if you want to just relax from school or homework. And I thank Miss Mary for helping me find this book.
