A brave girl sets off on an epic adventure to find and then rescue her best friend. But will she ever find her way to the Snow Queens frozen winter palace?

A new collection of Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tales. There are 12 stories which include old favourites such as The Ugly Duckling, The Princess and the Pea and The Snow Queen, as well as some less well known tales such as The Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweep and The Shadow.

A new selection of 30 tales. 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 cut-outs - will bring these magical tales to life for readers of any age.

Featuring a stunning array of illustrations by Jennie Harbour, this collection brings to life some of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved tales. Readers will find classic stories such as 'The Emperor's New Clothes', 'The Steadfast Tin Soldier', 'The Ugly Duckling', 'The Snow Queen', and 'The Princess and the Pea'. Originally published in 1922, this edition beautifully captures the enchantment and moral lessons inherent in Andersen's timeless narratives.

Though the emperor banishes the nightingale in preference of a jeweled mechanical imitation, the little bird remains faithful and returns years later when the emperor is near death and no one else can help him.
