SKU E2 Book overview Hans Christian Andersen was first known as a poet, and his poetry won him many patrons and paid his way to travel throughout Europe. His first book of fairy tales was published in 1835. The book was a success, and he followed it with many other volumes of children's stories, almost one a year, right up until 1872! Because of his wonderful fairy tales, Andersen became known as the greatest writer in Denmark, and one of the most beloved children's authors in the world. In his lifetime, he wrote more than one hundred and fifty fairy tales, and his stories have been translated into over 100 languages! Hans Christian Andersen was tall and skinny with a big nose. He always thought that he was very ugly. His stories show compassion for those who are outcast and suffering. They also make fun of the spoiled and conceited. Plus they teach us that appearances can be deceiving, and that there is a magical beauty even within the most unlikely characters.
