Does being rich mean being generous as well? What do you think? The wealthy man in our story realizes at the end of his days that he has been cruel and indifferent and wants to right his wrongs. The peasant who shows up at his door begging for help seems like a sign from God. How will this story end? You can find out in Brothers Grimm’s moralistic tale "The Grave Mound".

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.

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm’s exceptional literature legacy consists of recorded German and European folktales and legends. Their collections have been translated into all European languages in their lifetime and into every living language today.
