Description
Hans Christian Andersen is regarded by his homeland, Denmark, as a national treasure, but his popularity extends far beyond his native land. As one of the most translated authors in the world, there are hundreds of editions of his books in many languages. He is best known for his extraordinary fairy tale series, many of which remain classics to this day, inspiring numerous film adaptations of his famous stories and new collections of his tales. Suggestive and moving, their rich narratives are highly convincing and tend to reveal morals in an accessible and thought-provoking way. He was a great admirer of Dickens, and they maintained a literary friendship for many years.
This latest collection celebrates Andersen's exceptional work and features a wide selection of beloved stories such as "The Little Mermaid," "The Emperor's New Clothes," "The Ugly Duckling," "The Princess and the Pea," and "The Snow Queen."
Fascinating titles and a very broad range of authors are synonymous with the Flame Tree Publishing brand.
