description: Renowned children’s book author Wanda Gág presents these classic Grimm tales, accompanied by whimsical illustrations. Drawing on her peasant heritage and childlike sense of wonder, Gág translated the fairy tales in a uniquely American vernacular tongue. More Tales from Grimm contains over thirty more, including “The Golden Key,” “The Seven Swabians,” and “The Wolf and the Fox,” as well as almost one hundred illustrations. No other editions of Grimm’s fairy tales for children can match Gág’s richness of prose and the humor, beauty, and sheer magic of her pictorial interpretation. Best known for her Newbery Honor winner Millions of Cats, Wanda Gág (1893–1946) was a pioneer in children’s book writing, integrating text and illustration. Born in New Ulm, Minnesota, she rose to international acclaim. In recognition of her artistry, she was posthumously awarded the 1958 Lewis Carroll Shelf Award for Millions of Cats and the 1977 Kerlan Award for her body of work.TABLE OF CONTENTS:The Golden KeyThe Seven SwabiansThe Wolf and The FoxMother HolleThe Water NixieThe Mouse, The Bird, and The SausageThorn Rose, The Sleeping BeautyThe Sweet PorridgeThe Little Shepherd BoyThe Twelve Lazy ServantsLucky ScrapsThe Cat and The FoxThe Soldier and His Magic HelpersThe Good-For-NothingsThe Star DollarsA Trip to SchlaraffenlandThe Three LanguagesThe Straw, The Coal, and The Bean.The Wishing Table, The Gold Donkey, and The Cudgel-In-The-SackThe Tailor Who Went to HeavenPresents of the Little FolkThe Three SpinnersThe Six SwansThe Queen BeeThe Hedgehog and The RabbitThe Earth GnomeThe Three Lucky OnesThe Sorcerer’s ApprenticeIron HansJorinda and JoringelThe Wolf and The Seven Little KidsThe Shoemaker and The Elves
