The present volume is the second of the selected stories from Hans Andersen. Together the books include what, out of a larger number, are the best for children's use. The story-telling activity of this inimitable genius covered a period of more than forty years. Besides these shorter juvenile tales, there are a few which deserve to survive. The Ice Maiden is a standard, if not a classic, and The Sandhills of Jutland was pronounced by Ruskin the most perfect story that he knew. It adds a charm to the little stories of these two volumes to know that the genial author traveled widely for a man of his time and everywhere was urged to tell the tales himself. This he did with equal charm in the kitchens of the humble and in the courts and palaces of nobles. As was said in the preface to the first volume, wherever there are children to read, the stories of [v]Hans Christian Andersen will be read and loved.
