Grimm's Fairytales collects the best-known stories of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in one calm, slow bedtime listen.
The Brothers Grimm spent years gathering folk tales from across Germany two centuries ago, and this collection holds many of the results: proud kings and quiet millers, wicked stepmothers, wandering princes, and children who outsmart giants and witches with nothing but their wits. Some tales are famous. Others are quieter and less known, but carry the same old-world charm.
This is classic folklore at its simplest, short stories built for telling aloud, with a plain, timeless shape passed down long before they were written. It's a natural home for fairy-tale fans, old hands and first listeners alike.
Each story arrives at the same easy pace in Andrew Bond's calm delivery. Nothing frightening waits here, only the steady comfort of once-upon-a-time, told softly enough to see you off before the tale is done.
