Features: The reason why Andersen's fairy tales are so rich in poetic atmosphere is not only due to his personal temperament but also another personal factor. Before him, most fairy tales written by authors were essentially retellings of folk tales. As literary works, Andersen's fairy tales are probably second only to the Bible in terms of translations into various languages worldwide—in some languages, there have even been several or even dozens of different translations. This book collects Andersen's literary works, including detailed content such as "The Little Mermaid," "The Neighbors," "The Nightingale," "The Ugly Duckling," "She Is a Waste," "The Princess on the Pea," "The Tinderbox," "The Emperor's New Clothes," "The Naughty Child," "The Wild Swans," "The Phoenix," "The Dream Under the Willow Tree," "The Collar," "The Little Devil and the Merchant," "The Most Beautiful Rose in the World," "The Swans' Nest," "The Beetle," "Madsen's Flowers," "It's All True," "The Snowman," "The Dryad," "Thumbelina," "Distinguishing the Gardener from the Master," "The Last Pearl," "Playing Cards," "Hans the Simpleton," "The Steadfast Tin Soldier," "The New Goddess of the New Century," "Old Man Never Makes Mistakes," "Daisies," "The Ice Maiden," "The Flying Box," "The Little Girl Who Sold Candles," "Angel," "The Lucky Shoes," "The Thorny Path of Glory," "The Shepherdess and the Chimney Sweeper," "The Bachelor's Nightcap," "Butterflies," "The Madman of Summer," "A Nobleman and His Daughters," "The Toad," "The Story of the Dunes," "A Silver Coin," "Rags," "The Key to Open the Door," "Two Sea Islands," "Who Is the Luckiest," and "A Picture Album Without Pictures."
