Can you imagine that a young man chose his bride by the way she cut cheese? No, we are not joking. This a real story we know from Brothers Grimm. The hesitant bridegroom could not choose between three sisters, so his mother advised him to give them a piece of cheese and see how they cut it. If you want to find out who he chose and why, you may just grab "Brides on their Trial".

Brothers Grimm are probably the best-known storytellers in the world. Some of their most popular fairy tales are "Cinderella", "Beauty and the Beast" and "Little Red Riding Hood" and there is hardly anybody who has not grown up with the adventures of Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel and Snow White.
