Rumpelstiltskin in Modern English

Joseph Jacobs’ fairytales are magical; but how do you get kids excited about the stories when most translations were written over 100 years ago in a dated English? This is a retelling of one of Jacobs’ most beloved stories: Rumpelstitskin.


This book is also available as a larger anthology with even more Jacobs’ stories.
