Hans Christian Anderson

Florida

The wintry streets of an American city are thronged with shoppers, in preparation for New Year's Eve. But no one is interested in buying the matches and artificial flowers offered by one little girl. Wishing to avoid the cold welcome awaiting her at home, she lights her matches for what little heat they can provide. The visions that she sees in their flickering glow warm her spirit, even as the brutal cold of night destroys her body.Three-time Caldecott Honor winner Jerry Pinkney's interpretation of this famous Hans Christian Andersen tale transforms the little Danish girl into a child drawn straight out of the American melting pot--a child who is of no easily identifiable culture, and so is of them all. The poignancy and immediacy of Pinkney's art draw the reader into the early twentieth-century streets, to witness how the poor can be invisible in the midst of the wealthy--a condition Andersen would instantly recognize.

Hans Christian Andersen is one of the world's most popular storytellers, and his fairy tales are among the best-loved works of literature. Readers the world over know his poignant tale of The Little Mermaid, who sacrifices everything for love, and Thumbelina, the minuscule maiden who captures the heart of many members of the animal kingdom. Several of Andersen's stories are so well known -- among them The Emperor's New Clothes and The Ugly Duckling -- that their titles alone have become meaningful figures of speech.The Little Mermaid and Other Fairy Tales collects seventeen of Andersen's incomparable stories, among them The Princess and the Pea, The Red Shoes, The Wild Swans, and his fantasy masterpiece, The Snow-Queen. The book is illustrated in full colour by W. Heath Robinson. 

This volume is presented in exquisitely designed foil-stamped binding, with distinctive gilt edging and an attractive silk-ribbon bookmark.

A dramatic, beautiful retelling by a leading authority on the works of Hans Christian Andersen.A widely-known, well-loved tale.Exquisite art sets this book apart from all other retellings of The Emperor's New Clothes. The illustrator has chosen to set the story later than Andersen's own time: here the setting is in a little empire somewhere in prewar Europe, around 1913. Illustrations show many wonderful details of this era.

Stephen Mitchell

Graceful and full of rich humor, Stephen Mitchell’s retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s THE NIGHTINGALE is paired with impeccably researched, astonishingly beautiful paintings by Bagram Ibatoulline. The Emperor of China lives in the most marvelous palace in the world, made entirely of porcelain, and his garden is full of the rarest flowers. But loveliest of all - so say visitors to his realm - is the song of the nightingale in the forest by the sea. Though his bustling courtiers can’t find her, a clever kitchen maid can, and the nightingale soon enchants the Emperor with her song. But will the gift of a bejeweled bird with a mechanical tune replace the humble nightingale in his heart? Warmly and accessibly retold by master translator Stephen Mitchell, this definitive edition features breathtakingly intricate artwork by Bagram Ibatoulline, illustrator of CROSSING.
