about 10 minutes per story, great for bedtime stories for young kids, usually asleep after one story

The only thing good about this book was the narrator. I kept hoping that somebody would have morals, but there’s not one single character to like. Please don’t waste your time.

Lovely

Very heavily modified versions of the stories, the ending is nothing like Andersen, especially in Little Mermaid.

Good narration, but terrible edition of the tales to read.

Not the original Hans Christian Andersen stories. You should list the actual author of these stories. Otherwise good narration.

Not hans christian Andersen
