Hans My Hedgehog retold by Kate Coombs, Illustrated by John Nickle
Traditional
This story is the retelling of a Grimm Brother's fairy tale. The original story is not very popular (at least that I'm aware of), making it an interesting choice for a fairy tale example. The author has a page at the end explaining the differences from the original story to her story, which I find extremely interesting. This could be something used in the classroom to demonstrate author's choices or simply to show how fairy tales change, not only from culture to culture but over time.
