The Little Mermaid and Other Fairy Tales

Description

Among the most beloved of all fairy tales, the stories of Hans Christian Andersen delight us with their originality, whimsy and humorous treatment of human faults and foibles - vanity, snobbery, greed and the like. Often these human failings are the villains of the stories rather than the witch or ogre of traditional tales. Now young readers (and listeners) can enjoy the special magic of Andersen fairy tales in this selection of four of his most popular stories. - 'The Little Mermaid'; 'Great Claus and Little Claus'; 'The Tinder Box'; 'The Swineherd'.
