Reviewed by silaIch liebe die Märchen der Brüder Grimm wirklich sehr, und in dieser kleinen Penguin-Ausgabe hat mir das Lesen richtig Spaß gemacht. Am meisten liebe ich natürlich Die Bremer Stadtmusikanten und Schneewittchen, aber auch die anderen Geschichten in diesem Heft haben mich richtig begeistert. The Robber Bridegroom war düster, spannend und irgendwie viel intensiver, als ich es erwartet habe. The Devil’s Three Golden Hairs fand ich total faszinierend, weil es so märchenhaft, klug und gleichzeitig ein bisschen unheimlich ist. Man merkt einfach, wie kreativ und fantastisch die Grimms erzählen konnten. Es ist das perfekte Buch, wenn man kurz etwas lesen möchte, statt am Handy zu scrollen. Die Märchen sind zeitlos, leicht zu lesen und machen einfach immer wieder Freude.
