This book of five classic fairy tales follows an earlier edition based mostly on works by the Brothers Grimm. The tribute here is to Hans Christian Andersen and three of his most popular stories, including the search for a genuine princess, an emperor who is foolish as well as ridiculous, and a duckling that discovers there’s more than meets the eye in the real world. They are joined by a little girl who takes advantage of three bears, first put into print by Robert Southey in 1837, and the tale of a mysterious piper which has seen many variations, Robert Browning’s in particular, on the events of June 26, 1284, when the children of a small hamlet suddenly disappeared.

I really don't know how to review this book. I really don't. I enjoyed it. The retelling of "Goldilocks" is really funny, and the version of "Pied Piper" is really rather touching and powerful. Yet, I have a feeling that if I were a parent reading these to a child, I might be upset at the twists that are given to "The Princess and the Pea" and "The Ugly Duckling". To be honest, the twist given to "Princess" didn't bother me that much (and I thought it was fitting), and while the twist to "Duckling" is very true and very swan like, part of me feels it is too much of a violation of Andersen's original. The other part of me laughed.Yet, the other three were quite good. So if you are thinking of reading these to your child, read them yourself first.
