Gr 2-3 The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales (Pantheon, 1976) calls this ``The Shoes That Were Danced to Pieces.'' The title of this new version may be an improvement, but the retelling is not. Part of a series of ``Easy-to-Read Folktales,'' it not only uses simplified vocabulary and sentence structure, but also introduces dialogue and some awkward language and unnecessary explanation. It also changes some content (e.g., making a gun a trumpet). Seltzer uses various art techniques and achieves some interesting effects, but the pictures often have a static and awkward quality. It is doubtful that any illustrations could rescue this text, and these certainly do not. Ronald A. Van De Voorde, Graduate Library School, University of Arizona, Tucson (c) Copyright 2010.
