Hans Christian Andersen Tales
This collection of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairy tales makes a stylish addition to any home library.
Fairy tales are timeless treasures passed from one generation to the next, and few are as beloved as those of Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. From the princess so sensitive she is discomforted by a single pea beneath a tower of mattresses to the unfortunate-looking duckling who matures into a stunning swan, these are the stories that stay with us long after we leave childhood behind.
First published in 1835, Andersen’s tales continue to delight the modern audience. Featuring colourful sprayed edges and a heat-burnished cover with foil stamping, Hans Christian Andersen Tales is a stylish collection of these wonderful stories, complete with classics like “Thumbelina” and “The Little Mermaid,” plus lesser-known gems to discover, including “The Tallow Candle.”
