Christmas Fairy Tales – Hans Christian Andersen
A jewel of a book for long winter evenings, filled with atmospheric fairy tales, joy and thoughtfulness.
Hans Christian Andersen wrote plays, novels, travel sketches and memoir, but he is best known for his fairy tales. The themes of belonging, fitting in and being recognised run through all of his stories, whether the protagonist is an ugly duckling, a chimney sweep or an aspiring young artist.
