Published in 1836 in Danish, 'Thumbelina' or 'Tommelise' is one of Hans Christian Andersen's most popular fairy stories. Before he became famous throughout Europe and went to stay (and outstay his welcome) at Dickens's house, Andersen was busy writing some of the most familiar fairy tales in European literature.
Here's the story: Magically born from a flower, tiny Thumbelina is soon kidnapped by horrid toads for purposes of marriage. She's rescued by fish and a butterfly, abducted by an amorous beetle, abandoned, adopted by a mouse, forced to marry a mole and rescued by a swallow just before the wedding.Apr 11, 2010
