Quase 150 anos após sua morte, Hans Christian Andersen continua a encantar leitores de todas as idades. Com um estilo próprio, que foge muitas vezes das estruturas tradicionais dos contos de fadas e traz às narrativas um divertido tom de ironia, o escritor inspirou-se em casos contados pelo pai, durante a infância miserável na Dinamarca, e também naqueles ouvidos ao longo da vida. Para esta coletânea, a escritora Luciana Sandroni selecionou algumas histórias: o Patinho Feio, O Soldadinho de Chumbo, O Rouxinol e o Imperador da China, A roupa nova do Imperador e outros.

One day—for no particular reason—they decided to tidy up their house, make the beds, and prepare pudding of varying temperatures.

My friend Robin and I were going to have the best sleepover ever. We'd stay up late, eat s'mores, share secrets - and not knock on my magic mirror. I was not getting pulled into another fairy tale. But the mirror still ends up pulling me and my brother, Jonah, into Sleeping Beauty's story - and this time, Robin comes with us, too! When Robin pricks her finger on the spindle, I know we're in trouble.

Tonight the mirror swept us into Cinderella's fairy tale. Now, we are NOT messing this story up. No way. Cinderella is going to marry her prince just like she's supposed to. Uh-oh.
