"I recieved a very old copy of this book for my 8th birthday from my mother. It has a dark green cover that is textured. It is full of old color pictures some of which were very scary to me at the time, scary black widow spiders with human faces & such. I'm not sure of the edition or day it was made, the only page gone from the whole book,is that one! But it had been through many people before me. I guess what I liked about these fairy tales others may not, the tales are often sad in their endings. And murders occur in others. The matchstick girl to scared to face her parents without selling all her matches freezes to death out on the streets. But again this is one of those books I always come back to, to read again & again!"
"So far I've only read these tales: The Emperor's New Clothes, The Happy Family, The Little Mermaid, The Nightingale, The Princess and the Pea, The Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweep, The Snow Queen (awefull!), The Steadfast Tin Soldier, Thumbelina, The Ugly Duckling , The Goblin at the Grocer's, The Shadow (good), It's perfectly true, grief, the snowman,the sandman, the jumpers, the tinderbox, the rose tree regiment, the naughty boy (funny), the swineherd, the little match girl, the wild swans(good), father's always right(one of the best).
I absolutely loved The Goblin at the Grocer's and want a picture of the little Goblin sitting atop the chimney holding his precious book to hang in my home."
"This set of four volumes appeared in the house around Christmas, perhaps being presented as a present. This English edition was published in the place of the author's birth.
Although I started reading the stories immediately, it was probably years before I finished them, years which involved reading quite a few of them to my little brother."
"I still have the copy from my childhood, illustrated by Arthur Szyk. His illustrations emphasize the sad & creepy aspects of the stories in a way that gave me chills when I was a kid, and still kind of creep me out. I'm going to have to re-read my book, now that I've added it to my GR collection."
