Children everywhere are familiar with the fairy-tale world of the Brothers Grimm, who made once upon a time” a part of our universal vocabularybut few people know much about the brothers themselves.

This thorough and compelling biography addresses the social, political, and historical influences that shaped the lives and stories of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm.
