There was once a young girl whose only possessions were the clothes on her back and a piece of bread some kind soul had given to her.
But even these few things meant much to others less fortunate than herself; and in selfless love, the girl gave away the little that she had.
In this beautiful Grimm fable, it is truly more blessed to give then to receive.

--School Library Journal About the Author Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were born in 1785 and 1786 near Frankfurt, Germany.
In their early twenties, they began the linguistic studies that would culminate in their collected editions of folk- and fairy tales.
They got their stories from peasants and villagers, and sometimes from already-published works from other cultures.
Jacob did much of the research; Wilhelm put the stories into literary form.
Bernadette Watts, known throughout Europe simply as Bernadette, has illustrated many dozens of folk- and fairy tales.
Born in England, she loved to draw from childhood.
She studied at the Maidstone Art School in Kent, UK for a time under the tutelage of Brian Wildsmith.
Bernadette's many beautiful books include The Snow Queen and The Bremen Town Musicians.
Bernadette finds her inspiration in nature.
Today she lives and works in Kent.
She has been illustrating for North South Books and Nord S d Verlag since the beginning of her career 50 years ago.
