Overview

A soldier is not properly paid for his service to the country so he decides to take his revenge on the king. He however realizes that it would be almost impossible to succeed by himself so he gathers a group of five more people who have special powers and strengths. They head out to the king’s castle where a race is to be held. Whoever wins it, takes the king’s daughter. The runner in the group takes part and he wins. The king is however not happy with the outcome so he tries to send the group away. What he does not know is that his opponents are strongest of all and he would need a miracle to prevail over them.

About the Author

When Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, aka the Brothers Grimm, set out to collect stories in the early 1800s, their goal was not to entertain children but to preserve Germanic folklore. Once the brothers saw how the stories entranced young readers, however, they began softening some of the harsher aspects to make them more suitable for children. A cornerstone of Western culture since the early 1800s, Grimm’s Fairy Tales is now one of the world’s most beloved books.
