Frederick and Catherine

by Brothers Grimm, Margaret Hunt (Translator)

Can you for example imagine that she left one sausage safely in the frying pan and she went downstairs to draw beer. Everything seemed to be alright. Until she remembered that the dog was not fastened up and it could take the sausage. So she left the beer and ran upstairs. Shortly after the whole cellar was filled with beer. Poor Catherine tried to fix things but she made it even worse. Come along to find out what more can go wrong with Frederick and Catherine.

About the Author

When Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, aka the Brothers Grimm, set out to collect stories in the early 1800s, their goal was not to entertain children but to preserve Germanic folklore. Once the brothers saw how the stories entranced young readers, however, they began softening some of the harsher aspects to make them more suitable for children. A cornerstone of Western culture since the beginning of the 19th century, Grimm's Fairy Tales featuring their iconic stories like "Rapunzel", "The Frog Prince", "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", "Cinderella" and "Little Red Riding Hood" is now one of the world's most beloved books.
