Walter Crane Libri

The stories of magic and myth gathered by the Brothers Grimm have become part of the way children—and adults—learn about the vagaries of the real world. Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow-White, Hänsel and Gretel, Little Red-Cap (Little Red Riding Hood), and Briar-Rose (Sleeping Beauty) are only a few of the more than two hundred enchanting characters included in this volume. The tales are presented just as Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm originally set them down: bold, primal, just frightening enough, and endlessly engaging. With black-and-white illustrations throughout Illustrated by Josef Schari / Commentary by Joseph Campbell Part of the Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library

C'era una volta una principessa che si annoiava non sapendo come passare il tempo. Prese allora una palla d'oro, con la quale soleva spesso giocare, e si addentrò nel bosco fino a dove si trovava una sorgente d'acqua pura e fresca. Là si sedette e si divertiva a gettare la palla in alto e a riprenderla. Le accadde tuttavia di lanciarla molto in alto. Ella tendeva già le braccia per afferrarla, ma la palla ricadde al suolo e rotolò in acqua.
