THE DREAM OF LITTLE TUK. THE NAUGHTY BOY. TWO NEIGHBORING FAMILIES. THE DARNING NEEDLE. THE LITTLE MATCH-GIRL. THE RED SHOES. TO THE YOUNG READERS. "We have placed Andersen's name at the head of our list, in gratitude for the delight and amusement his stories for children have afforded us. When Fairy-land seemed lost to us, or peopled by a new race of utilitarians, who spoke its language and tried its spells in mere slavish imitation, without comprehending their use and meaning; a Poet from the North has made fresh flowers bloom there, and brought it back again to our hearts and eyes in brighter colors and stronger outlines than before."--_Christian Remembrancer._ |
