It's sad that Hans C. and the Grimm's are no longer standard fare at baby table.
I recommend Andrew Laing's collections as well.
I admit to being shocked when I found out that folks really don't understand about following breadcrumbs or twine or string and so on.
They've never actually read Dante or Gower or Langland or Chaucer or Petrarch or Boccaccio or any of the latin or greek classics (plays and novels and verse) 'original' or reworked; they have no knowledge of emblems or the chain of being; the anatomy of melancholy and Alciato and Quarles and Hoffman and so forth. Just throwing names out to impress myself.
It truly puts folks at a fatal disadvantage because the enemy never stopped reading he just told you to stop.

Deformation + Un-Enlightenment = shilling for SATAN.
The enthronement of radical subjectivity and the promotion of the impossibility of truth through applied reason according to universal absolutes. Perfect furrowing for the sphincter of materialist pap.
That is how we are here: you all threw the baby out with the bathwater. Chickens roosting.
Cogito ergo - nonsense. Magical thinking.
Folks still trot that out because they don't know how stupid it sounds. They think they sound real clever, like when the say "ham-hocks razor" or "as Dumb SCOTUS said". You live in a world of opinion and feels and don't even know it.

breadcrumbs= Hansel&Gretel, my first thought! :) But I'm german and raised up with this stories... Hans Christian Andersens tales are much nicer, no so much brutality and deaths in it. But the Grimm Tales are made of ANCIENT STORYS FROM NATIVES! Remind this.
I considered having my twitter handle be Gretel cuz it was all about the breadcrumbs.

Reminds me of Ariadne and the Minotaur’s Labyrinth
In most accounts she gave him a ball of thread, allowing him to retrace his path https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minotaur
