Grimms' fairy tales / Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm ; introduced by Matt Haig ; illustrations by George Cruikshank.
From the land of fantastic castles, vast lakes and deep forests, the brothers Grimm collected a treasury of entrancing folk and fairy stories full of giants and dwarfs, witches and princesses, magic beasts and cunning boys.
