Hans Christian Andersen
The luminous art of three-time Caldecott Honor recipient Jerry Pinkney transforms the nineteenth-century Danish girl of Andersen's tale into a child plucked straight from America's melting pot, shedding new light on the invisibility of the poor among the prosperous-a circumstance as familiar in Andersen's day as it is in our own."[A] beautifully illustrated version of a classic tale."(Booklist, starred review)

"The illustrations were crowded and beautiful. I could almost feel the cold. Also the imagination of this young girl was heartening. Still not sure what age group you could read this took because it get very dark, very fast."
