Cinderella, Snow White, The Frog Prince, and The Clever Tailor—these enchanting fairy tales all come from Grimms' Fairy Tales. They were written by the German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. The brothers began collecting folk tales around 1806, visiting living rooms, gardens, houses, and estates repeatedly to record oral traditions by word of mouth and pen. They gathered fairy tales and stories that had been passed down for hundreds or even thousands of years. Later, they organized and refined these materials, combining them into Children and Household Tales, commonly known as Grimms' Fairy Tales, which includes a total of 216 fairy tales.
