Jacobo y Wilhelm Grimm, dos estudiosos alemanes, dedicaron buena parte de su vida a recopilar cuentos y leyendas tradicionales, y esa inmensa coleccion ha sido imitada por muchos otros escritores, y asi dejaron bases para una literatura infantil que, sin embargo, atrae igualmente a los mayores, puesto que los cuentos tienen interes argumental y estan narrados con conocimiento. Algunos de los personajes, como Caperucita, Blanca Nieves y la Cenicienta, son vivos retratos de lo que puede pasar en la vida real.

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm's collection of fairytales called Kinder- und Hausmärchen ( Children's and Household Tales) was published in 1812. Filled with moral lessons that are not wrapped up in the now-expected "Disney-esque" feel, these stories may shock or scare you, but they have been the inspiration for some of the most beloved modern fairytales we know and love. Sixty-two fairytales are included in this collection.

Once there was a lazy girl who would not spin and her mother berates her for it. The Queen overhears and the woman, ashamed, explains that the girl spins so much that her mother cannot afford to buy enough flax to keep her occupied. The queen, impressed, takes the girl to a room filled with flax. If she spins it all within three days, she'll be rewarded with marriage to the queen's oldest son. Two days later, the queen returns and is amazed to find the flax untouched. The girl says that homesickness has kept her from spinning, but she realizes this lie will not serve her twice.
