We continue our journey through Grimm's Fairy Tales with the third story in the collection, The Virgin Mary's Child. This isn't a particularly religious story and doesn't teach a religious message, so it seems odd to have Mary as a character. Particularly when the story mostly consists of Mary making the child's life a complete nightmare. Abandon the child in a desolate tree in the middle of winter? Yep. Make the child mute? Without hesitation. Kidnap three of the child's own kids when she grows up and things finally start going well for her? Absolutely. This is a weird one, folks. Enjoy the madness!
