The Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen: First and Second Series (Illustrated and Annotated‪)‬

Hans Christian Andersen brought the fairy tale genre to a new level by writing a vast number of fairy tales that were both bold and original. Initially they were not met with recognition, due partly to the difficulty in translating them and capturing his genius for wit and dark pathos.


This edition has been formatted for your Ibooks reader, with an active table of contents.  Both the first and second series are included, complete with illustrations.  This edition is annotated, with additional information about the fairy tales, and extensive information about Hans Christian Andersen, including an overview, early life and career information, personal life information, and information about his legacy and death.
