About this listen

Thumbelina was first published in Danish in 1835 as Tommelise in the second instalment of Fairy Tales Told for Children by Hans Christian Andersen.

A woman, desperate for a daughter, goes to a fairy for help. The fairy gives her a barleycorn to plant, which grows into a tulip from which a tiny girl, scarcely half as long as a thumb, is born. Thumbelina soon attracts the attention of a Toad who wants the beautiful little girl as a bride for her son.

This collection also includes In the Uttermost Parts of the Sea, The Tinderbox and The Swan’s Nest.
