Grimms’ Fairy Tales is part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library; a series of stunning, pocket-sized classics bound in real cloth with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is complete and unabridged, and features Arthur Rackham’s masterly illustrations, all hand-coloured by Barbara Frith, one of Britain’s leading colourists.

The lives of Tom Thumb, Cinderella, Rumplestiltskin and the Frog Prince form part of our common heritage: they stimulate the imagination and the heart, and linger at the back of our minds for a lifetime. They are funny, disturbing, wise and compassionate. They speak of joy and terror, happiness and revenge, love and violence.

Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, Tom Thumb, and Snow White (Snowdrop) are among the jewels we owe to the German Brothers Grimm, who began in the first decade of the 19th century to seek out and listen to village storytellers. The best-loved of the tales they discovered have inspired generations and are now brought together with the marvellous pictures that in 1900 first established the reputation of one of the greatest children’s illustrators of all time, Arthur Rackham.

Beautiful illustrations in monochrome by Arthur Rackham make this collection of famous fairy stories a wonderful and timeless gift for children’s and adults alike.
