One thing I’ve learned is that collections of Fairy Tales are awfully repetitive and boring. It was a slog trying to read through all these stories in one go. I was able to enjoy the more familiar stories - The Little Mermaid, The Tinderbox, The Ugly Duckling, Thumbelina… because I could envision the stories better as I had already read them in comic form earlier. Also it was fun seeing how different the original and the modified popular versions were, such as  The Little Mermaid. They are so much more fun when read in a child-friendly format one at a time (I would recommend the Classics Illustrated Junior series).
