Uniquely imaginative and lively in style, with a deep understanding of children's perspectives, Hans Christian Andersen defined a new genre in literature. This collection "Best Fairy Tales" includes classic editions curated by Jean Hersholt and is illustrated by various artists, with an afterword by Ned Halley. Andersen was a deeply creative writer and storyteller who gave us the most established versions of some traditional fairy tales. The thirty stories in this edition include early works such as "The Tinderbox" and "The Emperor's New Clothes," but also touching masterpieces like "The Little Mermaid," "The Little Match Girl," and "The Ugly Duckling," as well as more subversive tales like "The Ice Maiden" and "The Dryad."
