The Little Mermaid and Other Stories

The Little Match Girl is a beautifully designed and reexamined collection of 17 of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved children's classics, including "The Little Mermaid," "Great Claus and Little Claus," "The Ugly Duckling," and more.

With smooth translations that capture Andersen's colloquial charm, ironic humor, and spiritual aspirations, this book is a must-read for fans of the author or anyone looking to rediscover the pleasures of time-honored tales.

The lavishly designed pages feature gold-tipped edges, thick paper, plenty of white space, patterned borders, and full-color illustrations that meld natural elements with fantastically patterned and intensely colored borders.

Whether you're a longtime fan of Andersen or just discovering his work, this book is the perfect gift item for anyone who loves classic children's literature.
