Brothers Grimm kept updating their collection with newly gathered and recorded fairy tales. They are among the best-known storytellers of folk tales, popularizing stories such as "Cinderella", "The Frog Prince", "Hansel and Gretel", "Rapunzel", "Rumpelstiltskin" "Snow White" and many more. The popularity of the Grimms' collected folk tales and fairy tales have endured well.

The influence of these books was widespread. W. H. Auden praised the collection during World War II as one of the founding works of Western culture. The work of the Brothers Grimm influenced other collectors, both inspiring them to collect tales and leading them to similarly believe, in a spirit of romantic nationalism.
