Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
Lisbeth Zwerger is one of the world’s preeminent children’s book artists, and one of the most original interpreters of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairytales. This handsome collection, originally published in 1991 now returns in celebration of Hans Christian Andersen’s 200th birthday. It includes eleven favorite stories, such as 'The Princess and the Pea' and 'The Emperor’s New Clothes,' as well as lesser-known but equally wonderful stories, all featuring Ms. Zwerger’s distinctively elegant, witty illustrations. This superb anthology is bound to become a treasured part of every child’s library.

Most of Andersen's Tales are dark, even a bit scary and many are truly heart breaking. Even though they are described as fairy tales, they can be enjoyed far more by adults. Children may enjoy the well known tales which are actually the simplest, but most can be enjoyed only by grown ups.

I have most all of the books illustrated by Lizbeth Zwerger. She is the most incredible artist.

The illustrations are beautiful, unique, inspiring and very magic. But despite the fact that the fairytales are by Andersen and some of them are parents-approved classics, some are less known and very scary. Just read it to yourself, before you read it to your child (or remove a couple of pages with the most awfull stories out from the book, like I did, even though I believe book vandalizing is a sin and crime.
