Publisher Description

Los grandes clasicos del cuento infantil. Hans Cristian Andersen, el gran escritor danes, trajo al mundo del cuento infantil una imaginacion amable y una inventiva unica. Al contrario de los Hermanos Grimm o del frances Perrault, Andersen no se baso en las tradiciones populares sino que creo los personaje y argumentos que son parte integral del mundo infantil. Dentro de un estilo sencillo y refinado, los cuentos de Andersen evocan las fantasias infantiles pero con una amabilidad que no tienen los otros cuentistas. La actriz de teatro y television Laura Garcia hace una lectura evocativa de esos cuentos que son no solo para ninos, sino que tambien para los adultos.

The great Danish writer brought to the world of the fairy tale an amiable imagination and a unique inventiveness; he did not base his stories on popular traditions but created the characters and plots that are an integral part of the children's world.

"Wonderful turns of phrase that really light up what we think are well known tales, but when we re-read them find them very rich, fresh and wonderfully sustaining for our journeys through the seeming imaginative deserts of adulthood. Get ma drift? "

    " Golly, but some Fairy Tales are grusome. Some of the tales I've also sort of known the story, but not read it, so that was fun. On to Grimm's Fairy Tales next. "

    " I wonder if Hans Christian Anderson had a sad life. He wrote a lot of sad stories. I really like all the stories in this book, but my favorite is "The Emperor's New Clothes." It is just hilarious. "

About Hans Christian Andersen

Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875) was born in Odense, Denmark, the son of a poor shoemaker and a washerwoman. As a young teenager, he became quite well known in Odense as a reciter of drama and as a singer. When he was fourteen, he set off for the capital, Copenhagen, determined to become a national success on the stage. He failed miserably, but made some influential friends in the capital who got him into school to remedy his lack of proper education. In 1829 his first book was published. After that, books came out at regular intervals. His stories began to be translated into English as early as 1846. Since then, numerous editions, and more recently Hollywood songs and Disney cartoons, have helped to ensure the continuing popularity of the stories in the English-speaking world.
