About The Book

Every night the king locks his daughters in their room. Yet every morning their shoes are full of holes. Where do they go night after night, and what do they do to wear out their shoes? Many princes have tried to solve the mystery, but all have failed. Now it is a poor soldier’s turn. Will he be able to discover the secret of the twelve dancing princesses?

About The Author

The brothers Jacob (1785–1863) and Wilhelm (1786–1859) Grimm are considered the founders of German linguistics and literary studies. They collected fairy tales that had been passed down orally and published them between 1812 and 1815 under the title Children's and Household Tales. The Grimm fairy tale collection has been part of the UNESCO Memory of the World Register since 2005.
