Synopsis "The True Story of my Life: Large Print"
Autobiographical novel of one of the greatest children’s writers that has ever lived: Hans Christian Andersen. Most famous for his versions of classic fairytales, such as The Little Mermaid, The Ugly Duckling, Thumbelina and The Snow Queen. “My life is a lovely story, happy and full of incident. If, when I was a boy, and went forth into the world poor and friendless, a good fairy had met me and said, ‘Choose now thy own course through life, and the object for which thou wilt strive, and then, according to the development of thy mind, and as reason requires, I will guide and defend thee to its attainment,’ my fate could not, even then, have been directed more happily, more prudently, or better. The history of my life will say to the world what it says to me–There is a loving God, who directs all things for the best.”
