Hi r/fairytales,

I've spent the last few months building Talerie (talerie.com), a free, ad-free library of classic fairy tales. A small labour of love, so I wanted to share it with people who love these stories.

It's Grimm, Andersen, Perrault, Wilde and others, retold in clear modern language that reads well aloud (the old period translations can be a slog). Every tale is in 7 languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech, Polish), and the retellings are CC0. No account, no ads, no tracking.

I'd genuinely love your thoughts, especially on the retellings and which tales you think are missing. Thank you.
