Enjoy twenty-two tales from a magical storyteller. This enchanting collection, translated by Valdemar Paulsen, contains twenty-two of Hans Christian Andersen's magnificent stories. It includes "Thumbelina," a little girl no more than a thumb-joint high; "The Emperor's New Clothes," the tale of a man who cares only for his appearance; and "The Little Mermaid," who longs to one day marry a human prince.
While the book looks handsome and is easy to read with large type, there are no illustrations, so it's the magic of Andersen's story-telling that will carry you away!
