Description

A family of toads lived in a very deep well: it was so deep that, from the top, you could not even see the surface of the water.

One of the young toads dreamed of knowing what there was outside of the well, so, ignoring his mother's warnings, he used the full water bucket that rose to the top to leave the well and go out and discover the outside world, so dangerous for a young toad!Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist.

Celebrated for children's literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl".

His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters.

His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013.

Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.
