About this listen

This is a story from the Andersen's Fairy Tales collection.

The world of Hans Christian Andersen is seen through the eyes of children. There is the everyday wonder of an ugly duckling being transformed into a swan; the puffed-up Emperor being fooled by his own importance; the tender tragedy of a little match girl; the upright honesty of John rewarded by his traveling companion. By bringing true feelings to these stories, Andersen's tales have become part of universal folklore.

Editorial reviews

Danish author, playwright, poet, and master of folktales Hans Christian Andersen’s oft-told fable of the homely little beast who transforms into the most lovely creature of all receives a multi-faceted production. Erica Johns’ tone is warm and her performance invites listeners, young and old, to sympathize with the unusual little critter who is abused and belittled by the other animals. He tries and tries, but can’t find a group to accept him until he ultimately blooms into the most beautiful and envied swan of all. This selection is from the Andersen’s Fairy Tale collection.
