Andersen's Fairy Tales Author:Hans Christian Andersen This is a special publication with somewhat a cloth (Navy) cover and a tissue covering. The book was translated by Mrs. E. V. Lucas and Mrs. H. B. Paul. There are no dates in the book but I received it when my first child was born....she will be 53 in October. Book is in excellent condition.
Fairy tales are essential to childhood. They are imagination that whispers to us, takes us on journeys, and connects us to others. They also are about as gentle a way of exposing a child to the horrors of this world, as there is.
