First two titles in a new series of best-loved Hans Christian Andersen stories, now in the Orchard Fairy Tales format. Each book contains two stories: THE LITTLE MATCH GIRL / THE WILD SWANS THUMBELINA / THE TIN SOLDIERS These direct, accessible retellings by Andrew Matthews are pacy and full of humour, and ideal for 7-9 year olds. Forming a useful teaching resource of traditional tales, they are perfectly complemented by Peter Bailey’s classic can humorous illustrations.

The power of imagination is amazing to lighten the pain of suffering. It is a story for people of all ages

It was OK but the little girl was a bit short but the wild swans was good it was exciting how she had to break the spell
