Illustrated by
Silke Leffler.
This collection of thirteen stories, originally published in Austria, includes familiar Andersen tales ("The Ugly Duckling," "The Little Match Girl") and a few lesser-known ones (e.g., "There Is No Doubt"). The stories are faithfully retold if a bit overlong and literal. Droll delicate-lined paintings and spot art decorate the pages. Cursory information about Andersen's life is appended.
