Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm
had collected and written down children’s stories from previous generations, and
the brothers looked to pass along these stories for future generations. From these ideas the tales from the Brothers Grimm
were born.
In December 20, 1812, they
published their first edition which contained 86 stories.
Two years later, they published a second edition of 70 stories. In subsequent years, they published new combined
additions of their stories, and added or subtracted some of the tales. By the time the seventh edition was published, it
featured a total of 211 tales. Some of the more
famous fairy tales include:
·
Rapunzel

Hansel and Gretel
