This collection of fairy tales include many that you may never have heard of. Published in 1884, Andersen obviously enjoyed putting many unique stories in it that he found fun to tell and listen to but which may not have been known to his growing audience of children and people. The short life of Hans Christian Anderson that starts the book will be included in this recording, even though it was written by the editor and not by Anderson. - Summary by phil chenevert (5 hr 9 min)
