The Six Swans
What's The Six Swans About
A classic Grimm’s fairy tale about the power of sisterly love! When six unfortunate brothers are turned into swans by an evil witch, their heart-broken sister vows to break the spell by sewing six shirts from starflowers and promising not to utter a word, or make a sound–not even a laugh–for six long years. This beautiful story was popular long before Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm put it into print. The captivating illustrations by Gerda Raidt will make this beloved classic a story time favorite.
