I really enjoyed this second half of Grimm (LibriVox). It was interesting and entertaining. One of my favorite stories from this section was the story The Fox and the Horse. I enjoyed this story because I thought it was very heartwarming. It was about a complete stranger helping another without the expectation of receiving an award.
The story begins the Horse being sent away by his owner. He was only allowed to return if he was stronger than a lion. The Horse feeling hopeless happened to come upon a fox. The Horse told the Fox his predicament and the Fox, pitying the horse, decided to help him. The Fox had the Horse "play dead" while he went to fetch the Lion. The Fox told the Lion about the "dead" horse and Lion being hungry and everything listened to the Fox. As soon as the Fox gained the Lion's trust he tied the Lions legs together so that he could not move. The Fox then gave the Lion to the Horse so that he may give it to his master. The Horse brought the bounded lion to his master and the master was pleased and allowed the Horse to return home.
Another story that I enjoyed was the story of the The Queen Bee. I enjoyed because of the moral of the story, which was treat others as one would like others to treat oneself. The dwarf in the story treated the animals with respect and in the end the animal treated the dwarf with respect as well. They helped him win over the princess.
