HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN STORIES FOR CHILDREN

Aurora Wetzel has divided her collection of Andersen stories into separate volumes for grown-ups and children. This collection contains mainly lesser-known tales, all with relatively new translations. The timbre of Wetzel's voice lends her storytelling a grandmotherly feel, and her enthusiasm for the material is evident in her reading. Without overacting, she takes on a wide array of characters.
