📗 Andersen's Fairy Tales ✍️ Hans Christian Andersen - 1835 Hans Christian Andersen (1805–75) was born in Odense, Denmark. He published his first novel and his first fairy tales in 1835; thereafter he wrote over 150 more of these stories which have become classics in many languages. Although he originally addressed his fairy tales to children (and some would maintain he had a streak of childhood in his nature) he insisted they were “for all ages,” and the gentleness and humor that are their characteristics are recognized by everyone.
