Sprookjes: Tweede verzameling

A lively anthology of classic Grimm tales, freshly rendered into Dutch, invites listeners into a world where the ordinary meets the extraordinary. The collection opens with a mischievous tailor who slips into the heavens while the divine hosts are away, only to discover a dazzling golden seat that lets him glimpse earthly affairs. His curiosity and boldness set the stage for a humorous clash of humility and hubris, offering a gentle reminder that even the smallest figures can stir the divine order.

Another story follows the same humble tailor, now a father of three, who tends a single goat that provides his family’s only milk. When the eldest son lets the goat wander onto a graveyard, the animal’s unexpected reaction hints at the playful twists that await. Each narrative is illustrated with charming woodcuts, enhancing the timeless feel of these moral fables while keeping the tone light and accessible for listeners of all ages.
