The work of the Brothers Grimm have gained worldwide renown as the inspiration behind many modern classics in cinematic history, most notably, Walt Disney's children's' films. This is a collection of the original tales, of well-known works such as "Cinderella" ("Aschenputtel") , "The Frog Prince" ("Der Froschkönig") and "Sleeping Beauty" ("Dornröschen") and lesser-known ones, like "The Fisherman and His Wife" ("Von dem Fischer und seiner Frau"), "The Singing Bone" ("Der singende Knochen"), and "The Wedding of Mrs. Fox" ("Die Hochzeit der Frau Füchsin"), all of which are lovely tales that I hope you'll enjoy! :)

"The Bells" is a heavily onomatopoeic poem by Edgar Allan Poe which was not published until after his death in 1849. It is perhaps best known for the diacopic use of the word "bells." The poem has four parts to it; each part becomes darker and darker as the poem progresses from "the jingling and the tinkling" of the bells in part 1 to the "moaning and the groaning" of the bells in part 4.

"The Raven" tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow fall into madness. The lover, often identified as being a student, is lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. Sitting on a bust of Pallas, the raven seems to further instigate his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". Cover by @Lujayna
