The Good Bargain

by Brothers Grimm, Margaret Hunt (Translator)

Overview

Is it a good bargain to throw money to the frogs in the pond and then complain about the frogs’ behavior? Is it smart to give a slaughtered cow to the dogs and then expect something in return? Isn’t it a great luck to make the princess laugh and get her hand only cause of this? Well it may be, if the farmer in our story wanted the princess’s hand. Which he apparently doesn’t. What happened after that? Did the king punish the insolent farmer? Is the farmer stupid enough to not accept the better life he gets offered or he is about to make even greater bargain?

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.
