Approachable but not "dumbed down" October 31, 2006 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
A very well written, approachable discussion of the history of the Grimms fairy tales, and analysis of the meaning of those tales. This seems to me to be a very well balanced interpretation ofthe fairy tales, without the author stressing their own interpretations at the expense of others for their own agenda as seems to be so common in this type of book.
Well worth the money
