About this listen

 Join me as I revisit a cherished collection of stories by Hans Christian Andersen that have captivated my imagination since childhood and continue to delight me today. The Emperors New Clothes has always amused me with its clever satire of adult pretensions. The Ugly Duckling resonated deeply with me, showcasing the transformation of a bullied outcast into a beautiful swan, though I often wished the protagonist would confront those unkind barnyard fowl. Thumbelina is a whimsical tale filled with adventure, while The Brave Little Tin Soldier celebrates courage and resilience. Finally, There Is No Doubt About It! is a playful and silly story that never fails to make me smile, especially with its charming talking animals.
