Description:
Renowned children's book author Wanda Gg presents these classic Grimm tales, accompanied by whimsical illustrations. Drawing on her peasant heritage and childlike sense of wonder, Gg translated the fairy tales in a uniquely American vernacular tongue. In Tales from Grimm we find her touch on timeless stories like "Hansel and Gretel," "The Musicians of Bremen," "Rapunzel," and others. No other editions of Grimm's fairy tales for children can match Gg's richness of prose and the humor, beauty, and sheer magic of her pictorial interpretation. Best known for her Newbery Honor winner Millions of Cats, Wanda Gg (1893-1946) was a pioneer in children's book writing, integrating text and illustration. Born in New Ulm, Minnesota, she rose to international acclaim. In recognition of her artistry, she was posthumously awarded the 1958 Lewis Carroll Shelf Award for Millions of Cats and the 1977 Kerlan Award for her body of work.
