Description

Johanne and Knud lived close to the town of Kjoge, where there are many gardens that extend as far as the river.

There is not much else, but it is charming in summer!

It was under the willow-tree in one of these gardens that Johanne and Knud spent a great deal of their time and theirs was a beautiful friendship.

But everything would change when Johanne had to leave for Copenhagen with her father!

Would they remain friends? Or even, as Knud hoped, could they become more than friends?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.
