I have been slowly (so veeeerrry slooooowlllly) working my way through all the Hans Christian Andersen books. This is the only one I would suggest reading.
It contains what appears to be every story ever written by Hans Christian Andersen!
Long stories (The Ice Maiden), short stories (The Princess and the Pea), well-known stories (The Little Mermaid), unknown stories (She was Good for Nothing) and dozens of others are all contained within these pages!
They are also readable! Instead they are somehow magically more approachable and I can almost remember why I loved Hans Christian Andersen so much as a child (selected stories from, at least).
So if you, like me, are determined to try and re-visit your childhood via fairy tales written by Hans Christian Andersen no matter what, at least take pity on yourself--or pity on your children if youre trying to read the stories to them--and read this version.
I really loved the stories in this book. I was surprised about the endings in some of them, but in a good way. I would highly suggest this book to anyone over 18 who loves fairy tales with twisted endings.
