The Frog Prince (Fairy Tale Classics)

Troll Communications, 1997

Delightful teamwork for my son and me
I think this "We Both Read" series is great. Whatever mood my boy is in when bedtime rolls around - whether he's working with me or against me - this concept works. I read the (difficult) left page in each two page spread, and the child reads the (easy) right. Teamwork. And even though these make no mention of Power Rangers or Batman Beyond, these are my boy's favorites. Along with some math ...

Beautiful Illustrations
Cuentos de Grimm, ISBN 8426106188 is a high quality hardcover book with many color illustrations by Arthur Rackham. I have a very hard time finding illustrated books for the Mexican children that I buy books for. I do not read Spanish and so cannot comment on the quality of the translation or whether the Spanish is understandable by Mexican children. The book also has many single color ...

The Musicians of Bremen

Brothers Grimm

Candlewick, 2005

ILLUSTRATIONS ARE WORKS OF ART
"The Musicians of Bremen" as illustrated in watercolor and ink by Niroot Puttapipat is a treasure, a work of art. Most are well familiar with the story of the four aging animals who band together to go to Bremen and become musicians. In this artist's hands the animals look as if they have led long lives, yet they're endearing, each invested with a distinct personality that mirrors the animal's ...

Snow White

Brothers Grimm

Random House, Inc., 1996

Santore's illustrations were beautiful
Charles Santore's illustrations were beautiful. He portrayed the moods and feelings of the subjects very well indeed. We appreciated that he gave human faces to the subjects rather than the animated cartoons of Disney. I never could understand from the Disney pictures why the stepmother was so beautiful or how Snow White was deceived by such an evil looking hag. Santore's illustrations ...

Rapunzel

Jacob Grimm, Brothers Grimm

Dial, 1989

Beautiful, haunting, enchanting
Trina Schart Hyman is one of the finest contemporary illustrators of children's books today. Anyone not aware of her exceptional talent is advised to take a look at this retelling of the Grimm's classic, "Rapunzel." The story is in a clear, straightforward, traditional retelling by Barbara Rogasky, but Hyman's illustrations lift this version out of the average and into the sublime. The ...

Some animals were going to Bremen Town to be musicians. On the way they saw some robbers. They kicked them out and the animals never went to Bremen-Town. The donkey kicked the robber with his hind legs, that is why I liked the book.

The Frog Prince

1 review
Brothers Grimm

Troll Associates, 1979

OUT OF PRINT BUT WELL WORTH THE HUNT
This particular version of this Grimm tale is out of print and a bit difficult to find but it is well worth the search as the illustrations are great. The tale of the Frog Prince sticks to the original quite well, which is refreshing, but the illustrations truely make this book. If you can find it, this is one that you might well want to add to your collection.

Very nice book
I appreciate this book especially for its beautiful, highly detailed illustrations and I also like the narrative style. My son loved it from the moment he saw it and that's the most important thing for me. I think this book is suitable for children and very good to read at bedtime, so it's worth buying it.

Sleeping Beauty Coloring Book (Dover Coloring Book)

Grimm Brothers, Thea Kliros

Dover Publications, 1992

This is no ordinary coloring book.
This coloring book is far superior to what you can buy in a department store. It is printed on good quality paper, the pictures are beautiful, and if colored neatly, it serves as a storybook to keep, as the story is well told beneath the pictures. My daughter and I really enjoyed coloring one together several years ago and continued to enjoy it through reading.

Hansel and Gretel

Brothers Grimm

North-South, 2001

Entertaining Book
First off, I really like the story of "Hansel and Gretel." It's one of the few fairy tales I remember reading when I was little. Recently, I wrote a paper on "Hansel and Gretel" and found that there is a lot of negativity surrounding it. Researchers object to the portrayal of women as cold-blooded killers and the father as weak and useless. In the story, the evil stepmother easily dominates her ...
