The stories and fairytales of Hans Christian Andersen have delighted generations of children and adults, and the complete list of Andersen’s 168 tales, in the chronological order of their original publication, with links to the original texts for most of them, can be found at Hans Christian Andersen: Fairy Tales & Stories. From The Tinder-Box (1835) to The Flea and The Professor (1873), Andersen’s tales in this collection are illustrated by the “official” Andersen illustrators, i. e., the Danish artists chosen by Andersen to illustrate the collected Danish editions of his tales.
