Review
Just when you thought Grimm's Fairytales couldn't get better - they did! Chris Grimly took the original tales and created wonderful illustrations to accompany each tale, making them that much more gruesome and grim. While I have fond memories of reading these tales from a young age, I find the illustrations greatly enhance the stories. This will be a great addition to any collection - even if you already have a copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales on the shelf.
Overall Book Score: excellent
