Reviews
First collected by the Brothers Grimm, this German folk/morality tale is as relevant today as always. The very simple text is well supported by humorous and attractive colour illustrations. Part of this excellent first reading series that is very good value in sturdy hardback. * Leicestershire County Council recommended Key Stage 1 Fiction Books *
