Children's and Household Tales is a collection of fairy tales first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. The collection is commonly known in English as Grimms' Fairy Tales.
They are the stories we've known since we were children: Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Rumpelstiltskin, Little Red Cap, and many more. Many of these tales begin with the familiar refrain of “once upon a time”—but they end with something unexpected and fascinating!
