A new selection of 30 tales to mark the 200 year anniversary of Andersen's birth in 1805,Stories included are: Auntie Toothache; Bell; Collar; Emperor's New Clothes; Fir Tree; Flying Trunk; Ice Maiden; Little Claus and Big Claus; Little Match Girl; Little Mermaid; Marsh King's Daughter; Most Incredible Thing; Nightingale; Old House; Princess on the Pea; Red Shoes; Shadow; Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweep; Snow Queen; Snowman; Steadfast Tin Soldier; Story of a Mother; Sweethearts; Thumbelina; Tinderbox; Traveling Companion; Ugly Duckling; Wild Swans; Wind Tells of Valdemar Daae and His Daughters; Wood Nymph.Tiina Nunnally's sparkling translation captures the rawness and immediacy of Andersen's style, for the first time enabling English readers to be as startled and amazed as his original readers were, and revealing the unique inventiveness of Andersen's genius.At a time when children's stories were formal, moral and didactic, Hans Christian Andersen revolutionized the genre, giving an anarchic twist to traditional folklore and creating a huge number of utterly original stories that sprang directly from his imagination. From the exuberant early stories such as 'The Emperor's New Clothes', though poignant masterpieces such as 'The Little Mermaid' and 'The Ugly Duckling', to the darker, more subversive later tales written for adults, the stories included here are endlessly experimental, both humorous and irreverent, sorrowful and strange.This book beautifully illustrated with a selection of Andersen's amazing paper cutouts will bring these magical tales to life for readers of any age.
