hans christian andersen treasury of fairy tales + giveaway

treasury-andersen-fairy-talesAn Illustrated Treasury of Hans Christian Andersen’s  Fairy Tales illustrated by Anastasiya Archipova.

Ever since this book arrived, I’ve been waiting for the perfect time for a special giveaway. This is it as it will arrive in time for the holidays.

“The Snow Queen” is one of the fairy tales in this illustrated compilation, from which I adapted my advent calendar version. Did you see it?

It’s a perfect holiday gift for a young reader and one the whole family can share, a treasure indeed. It contains eight of Andersen’s famous tales including “The Brave Tin Soldier” and “The Little Match Girl” which are very well suited for this time of year.

    Wow, the illustrations are so beautiful. When I was in Sweden several years ago I saw the Little Mermaid statue…nothing like having an inspired image to match up with a story. All those fairy tails in one book–what a great gift this would make. 🙂
