A0–B1 graded story, English translation and illustrations · Grimm Brothers

The Juniper Tree is one of the darkest fairy tales collected by the Brothers Grimm. Beneath a beloved juniper tree, a family experiences a miraculous birth followed by jealousy, betrayal, and a terrible crime. A grieving child gathers what remains of her brother and places it beneath the tree. From its branches rises a beautiful bird that sings about what happened. The bird travels from place to place, exchanging its song for gifts and preparing to return home. Part ghost story and part tale of justice, The Juniper Tree explores grief, cruelty, and transformation. Can the mysterious bird repair what has been broken and reveal the truth?
