Extended data:
Andersen wrote a lot of fairy tales, novels, plays, poems and travel notes in his life, and these works are still widely read today. But what really made him immortal was fairy tales. These 160 stories are long or short, a few of them are based on folklore, and most of them are his original fairy tales. They have been translated into many versions all over the world and have a huge circulation.
Many people think fairy tales are books written for children. In fact, most of Andersen's fairy tales are not written for children. Since the publication of the third collection of fairy tales, he deliberately removed "telling children".
Borrowing the naive perspective of children, the writer sees through the joys and sorrows of the world and the abyss of human nature. In his fairy tales, children get magnificent imagination, tenacious will and love comfort, while adults realize that it is more complex and broader.
