This was a fun, entertaining listen through these classic tales. Had never ‘read’ Grimm before but thoroughly enjoyed this collection…

Delightful Listen

Not bad but it is frustrating when they are billed as unabridged and this isnt. I was listening alongside reading the original stories at the same time for my MA creative writing course and the two dont match up. Lots of altered sentences and the way words are spoken from the original.

good but not unabridged as stated
