Fairy Tales From Grimm / by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm with introduction from L. Frank Baum
The Fairy Tales from Grimm is a collection of children's stories written by the Grimm brothers, many of which have been popularized by Disney. This miniature book includes several stories such as the tale of Snow White.
Although the stories were originally published in the 1800s, this copy was produced in 1905. What makes it fantastic is the illustrations in both color and black and white. These drawings beautifully help bring the stories to life.
--Adair J.

Beauty and the Beast retelling where Belle is a vampire and Beast is a recently turned werewolf.
He transforms every night no matter the moon phase, but is human presenting in the day.
Much of the story is him trying to bring out the main qualities he has in the day during the night where she can see them. Cuz they actually have so much in common and would mesh so so well but being transformed overwhelms his senses and his body becomes hard to navigate, which makes him uncharacteristically agitated due to frustration
Beauty/Belle is actually drawn to that abrasive-ness at first since humans are automatically charmed by her and thus she’s only experienced pandering and subservience from ppl for centuries, which is torturous when you’re looking for sincerity.
They get to know each other slowly; Beast working through his frustrations and figuring out how to maneuver his were-form, Beauty actually having to work on her socials skills and how to communicate with someone not hypnotically captivated by her vampiric lure.
Together, they find something patient, honest and vulnerable. A love they chose not in spite of the challenges but largely because of them

“One day the grandmother presented the little girl with a red velvet riding hood; and as it fitted her very well, she would never wear anything else; and so she was called Little Red Riding Hood.”

"We don't know when fairy tales began or what their origin was, but they are especially prevalent among Indo-European speakers and in the cultures with which Indo-European came in contact on the steppes".

Little Red Riding Hood's been always my favourite Grimm tale, when we watched it in kindergarten I always went to the classroom excitedly, because I could never get bored of the plot. Last time I revisited this topic, I painted the little gal as Alice in Wonderland. That was my first oil painting from when I was 16. Now that I am 26 and have a little more understanding of story telling, and finding my illustrative voice, I wanted to give it a try once again. I will probably never get bored of this story ❤️ Might do a little project of illustrating stories I used to love when I was a child.

Do you think Hans Christian Anderson and the Grimm brothers knew that they were creating iconic stories or was it just work for them?

"In fairy tales, witch is used as a powerful symbol and reflection of the wicked inner conscience  of human self. A witch depicts the archetypal deviant woman that denounces the norms of  patriarchy and exercises the privileges of freedom, autonomy and outspoken nature often enjoyed by men. A witch thus challenges the conventional order of male-centrism by not  confirming to societal expectations. In a word, the portrayal of witches and other "evil  women" in the tales perpetuates the stereotypical notion of the witch. The tales — didactic,  cautionary and entertaining in nature — are conventional, conservative, and paternalistic.
The  tendency to depict a malevolent maternal figure that explains the formulaic existence of evil  stepmothers/witches cannot be more appropriate for such patriarchal and sexist tales.” Witches, in fairy tales, are depicted as unattractive, scary old crones living in the  outskirts of human dwellings or forests as an outcast and engaged in malicious actions harming  others. In certain fairy tales such as Hansel and Gretel, witch exhibits cannibalistic tendencies  such as deluding and devouring children in spite of evil inclinations. She attracts children with  her house made of confectionaries and bread to feast upon them. - Reconstructing the ‘Witch’ Image in Fairy Tales: Exploring Katherine  Arden’s Winternight Trilogy Jasna Jalal
