Overview
With the words “Once upon a time,” the Brothers Grimm transport readers to a timeless realm where witches, giants, princesses, kings, fairies, goblins, and wizards fall in love, try to get rich, quarrel with their neighbors, and have magical adventures of all kinds—and in the process reveal essential truths about human nature.

When Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm set out to collect stories in the early 1800s, their goal was not to entertain children but to preserve Germanic folklore—and the hard life of European peasants was reflected in the tales they discovered. However, once the brothers saw how the stories entranced young readers, they began softening some of the harsher aspects to make them more suitable for children.

contos da infância

eu gostei bastante de ler contos infantis em seu estado original, sem os tão famosos finais felizes o tempo todo. agora entendi o motivo de terem modificados alguns.

mas no fim das contas, o lado sombrio era a forma que ia escritores encontraram na época de passar uma mensagem às crianças.

sinto saudades de contos cheios de imaginação.
