The author Hans Christian Andersen is regarded as a national
treasure by his homeland Denmark, but his popularity extends far
beyond his native shores. As one of the most translated authors in
the world, there are hundreds of editions of his books in many
languages. He is known predominantly for his remarkable series of
fairy tales, many of which remain classics today, providing both
inspiration for many film versions of his famous tales, as well as
new collections of his stories. Evocative and poignant, their rich
narratives are hugely compelling and tend to explore morality in an
accessible and thought-provoking way. He was a great admirer of
Dickens, and they conducted a literary friendship for many years.
This latest collection celebrates Andersen's unique literary output
and gathers together a large selection of much-loved tales such as
'The Little Mermaid', 'The Emperor's New Clothes', 'The Ugly
Duckling', 'The Princess and the Pea' and 'The Snow Queen'.
