Thanks to their work, Norwegian popular speech appeared in writing the first time. In Norwegian Fairy Tales you will find a selection of Asbørnsen & Moe’s tales. Among others the one about the pancake which rolled away into the world and the one about the princess who always wanted to have the last word.
