GrimmFairyTales.com Review
After looking around on their website, I thought that the Brothers Grimm website was peculiar. The opening page portrays the brothers as "grimm"-ugly and monstrous looking. Clicking on the "Featured Story" link, it was possible to flip through an interactive book that contained a children's story. There were many ads and lots of excess writing and I didn't feel like that page was very child friendly. However, I did feel like the "The Brothers Grimm" link contained useful information about the history of the Grimm brothers. I don't think the "Grimms Tales" link was accurate because it only contained two links to stories I had never heard of. If a child was researching the Brothers Grimm, this would be very misleading about what stories they had collected. Lastly, I appreciated that there was a link to fun activities, however, they weren't offered by the GrimmFairyTales website, it was instead a link to another server. Overall, I didn't feel like this website was a very helpful page and wouldn't hold it very reliable.
