Brothers Grimm: Two Lives, One Legacy
Brothers Grimm: Two Lives, One Legacy | Donald R Hettinga
1 post | 2 read
Children everywhere are familiar with the fairy-tale world of the Brothers Grimm, who made once upon a time a part of our universal vocabulary but few people know much about the brothers themselves. Inspired by their desire to document their national literary heritage, the two devoted brothers spent most of their adult years collecting and publishing German Marchen and Sagen, fairy tales and legends. This thorough and compelling biography addresses the social, political, and historical influences that shaped the lives and stories of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm."

Thank you @dabbe for creating this play~tag~share card.

I say my mom doesn't read, that's not fair, because she does, just not often. More often when my brother and I were kids, to teach us. These days, whenever. When my mom does read (nonfiction, history, maps, facts, etc.) she spends hours to days. The teacher-spirit in her still has her sharing everything she reads with me, if I'm in the room, that comes around to every 59seconds 😉👍.

AnnCrystal For me, nonfiction is rarely read. Nonetheless, I won't cheat 😂...Here are the nonfiction books that have actually managed to grab hold of me and that I have read all the way through.

1- Tagged (read years upon years ago).

2- Braiding Sweetgrass
Robin Wall Kimmerer.

3- Killers of the Flower Moon: An American Crime and the Birth of the FBI David Grann. (edited) 9mo
