If you are into Jim Henson's creatures, this is a great set. It may not be suitable for all ages, as the stories are dark; not only in storyline, but also the imagery. I believe the Brothers Grimm movie falls into a very similar category. I think there is at least one story missing from the series. I seem to remember a story of a mermaid who wishes to have ballerina slippers (legs and feet). It is not on either of the discs.
