Summary

This book is Selected Grimm's Fairy Tales from the Classics Every Young Reader Should Read series, a selection of German folk tales collected and compiled in the early nineteenth century by the Brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm. The brothers' original aim in gathering these oral stories was to preserve German cultural heritage; through their transcription and editing, the tales later became one of the most influential classics of world children's literature. This volume selects dozens of the most widely circulated representative tales, including The Frog Prince, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, The Valiant Little Tailor, The Golden Goose, The Fisherman and His Wife, The Goose Girl, The Hare and the Hedgehog, and The Shoes That Were Danced to Pieces. These stories mostly feature kings, princesses, hunters, miller's apprentices, talking animals, and witches in the forest; beneath the shell of magic and adventure lie simple moral themes such as courage, honesty, kindness, and wit, with clear distinctions between good and evil and definite endings, making them a perennial introduction for teaching children right from wrong. This edition is a popular reader aimed at primary and middle school students, with simplified and polished language, illustrations, and the main text arranged story by story for easy classroom and extracurricular reading and recitation. It can serve as a child's first book of world classic fairy tales, and as material for parents and children to read together and discuss the stories' lessons.

Editor's review

格林童话之所以能流传两百多年，原因在于它的故事结构简单直接：主角遇到困难，凭勇气、善良或机智过关，坏人受到惩罚。这些故事用最朴素的方式，为孩子搭起最早的道德框架，也让他们第一次感受到叙事文学的乐趣。本版选篇颇为讲究，既有孩子耳熟能详的《小红帽》《灰姑娘》《白雪公主》《青蛙王子》，也收入了《三片羽毛》《六人战胜了国王》《跳舞跳破的鞋子》《熊皮人》《金鸟》等在一般简写本中不常出现的篇目，读起来不重复、有新鲜感。故事长短错落，短的几百字即可读完，长的也不过数页，适合作为每天睡前或课后的一篇小任务。作为《青少年成长必读经典书系》的一册，本书定位清晰：语言难度适合小学中高年级到初中低年级，故事完整而不做过度删削，情节保留原貌。书中配以插图，能帮助孩子在阅读时建立画面感。家长若愿意陪读，还可以借这些故事和孩子聊一聊：为什么灰姑娘能获得帮助？勇敢的小裁缝靠的是什么？这样读，一本童话书的价值就远远超出“讲故事”本身。

Who it's for

A good fit for

小学中高年级到初中低年级、开始自主阅读整本书的孩子
想为孩子挑选第一本世界经典童话选集的家长
需要课外阅读素材和故事朗读材料的语文老师

Reading tips

不必按目录顺序读，可先挑孩子熟悉的《小红帽》《灰姑娘》，再逐步读较陌生的篇目。
短篇故事适合每天读一到两篇，读完后用三两句话复述情节，练习口头表达。
遇到《跳舞跳破的鞋子》《熊皮人》这类有悬念的故事，可以边读边猜结局。
亲子共读时可讨论主角为什么成功、反面角色错在哪里，把故事读成一次小对话。

About the author

雅各布·格林 Author

Jacob Grimm was a German linguist and scholar of folk literature who, together with his brother Wilhelm Grimm, collected and edited German folk tales and is regarded as one of the most important editors of Grimms' Fairy Tales. Public information about the details of his life is limited, so this entry focuses on his works. The library holds two of his works, represented by Grimms' Fairy Tales: The Complete 1857 First Edition (2 Volumes) and Grimms' Fairy Tales. These tales were largely drawn from oral folk narrative; their language is plain and their plots clear, retaining the repetition and simple moral meanings of oral literature, with both fantasy and reflections of rural life and everyday ethics. Grimms' Fairy Tales has circulated widely around the world, been translated into many languages, and deeply influenced later children's literature, folktale collection, and fairy-tale studies, and its classic pieces continue to be adapted and retold today.

威廉·格林 Author

Wilhelm Grimm is a German collector and editor of folktales, known to Chinese readers through Grimm's Fairy Tales. The library holds two of his works, Grimm's Fairy Tales: The Complete 1857 First Edition (2 volumes) and Grimm's Fairy Tales, usually classified under foreign literature and exam reading. Public information is limited, and biographical details are not expanded here; what is certain is that he, together with the Brothers Grimm, collected and adapted German folk stories, establishing the modern editing model for fairy-tale collections. These stories draw largely on oral narration, keeping a plain, colloquial storytelling voice, with simple plots and clear good and evil. Images such as witches, forests, and small animals recur, combining folk-life flavor with moral instruction. The collection was revised several times, and the 1857 edition circulated most widely, becoming an important source for later children's literature and often included in courses and exam reading lists.
