This book has been one of my favorites since i was a child and I periodically read this book to refresh my memory of the brilliant Fairy Tales that Andersen wrote. I like the way he spun the stories to be both sad and hopeful and put his own twist on classic tales.

Love this collection of Danish fairytales. Some are better than others but I discovered a few that I didn't know were from Hans Christian Andersen.
As much as I love the Disney's Little Mermaid, I think there is so much more depth and weight to the themes of the original version (religion, morality, love, sacrifice). Especially when compared to other works in the anthology like the Ugly Duckling, Snow Queen, Little Match Girl.

A big collection of fairytales that I liked. I knew some of the tales and I loved them. Others were a little forgettable or religious. A mixed collection.
