Andersen's Fairy Tales
Description:
Originally published in 1991, this stunning collection of classic fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen, illustrated by internationally acclaimed artist Lisbeth Zwerger, has been expanded with three stories. It is also completely redesigned in the same handsome format as the artist's recently published Alice in Wonderland, A Christmas Carol, and The Wizard of Oz. The artist has selected eleven of her favorite tales-familiar stories such as ""The Emperor's New Clothes,"" ""The Princess and the Pea,"" and ""The Nightingale,"" as well as lesser-known stories, such as ""The Sandman,"" ""The Jumpers,"" and ""The Rose Tree Regiment."" All are illustrated with Zwerger's signature style-marked by wit, grace, elegant simplicity, and insouciant charm.
