Happy Happy Happy

































So I was recently given this book by my Grandparents as a gift for my GCSE results! I received them last Thursday and got 3 A*s, 4 A's and 1 B :D I worked really hard and am so pleased with the outcome!

I am also so happy with this book! The pages are really thick and lined with gold! Plus the images inside are a mixture of black and white and coloured! The book includes all of the Grimm's fairytales they wrote as well as a few childhood stories!

I would recommend this book to people who love fairy tales or anyone who loves old, antique-looking classic books! I love how the fairy tales don't all end in happy endings but this book is literally perfect for everyone!

    1. Thank you! I saw this one in Waterstones and it was £25 so I thought I'd buy it on amazon instead but it was the same price! I was going to save up for it but no need anymore aha

  6. Lucky! I love Grimm's fairytales! And I love when books have those intricate details to the pages like the gold lining. Super pretty! Bet the illustrations are too!

    1. So do I! The gold lining is so perfect and I love the mixture between coloured images and black and white images. I also love how it looks a little antique but modern at the same time :)
