I have the complete set of the Grimm Fairy-Tales, and there are so many that I haven’t read! They are very short, as one would know, so I have decided to read each one and give them a review. Some are very vulgar, some are very cute and some don’t even make sense. Some of them are well known fairy-tales and some have never been told. Some are fairy-tales we know but are not the same because they have been downplayed for the children. What STRANGE little tales! First: The Elves and the Shoemaker. Everyone knows this story. But did you know elves also kidnap girls and babies? I feel like this means that most elves are evil and we shouldn’t talk to them. Good thing they aren’t actually things.
