In a celebration of one of the world’s most widely recognised children’s authors, this collection brings together some of Hans Christian Andersen’s most popular fairy tales with some of his more subversive masterpieces – from 'The Princess and the Pea’ and 'The Little Mermaid’ to 'The Red Shoes’ and 'The Snow Queen’. With universal themes and dark humour at their heart, these tales have delighted readers since their first publication and continue to be much loved today.
Timeless in their appeal, they have inspired many films, ballets and plays, and still inspire and entertain generations of children and adults alike.
