I love these tales. This audio version has multiple narrators. They all did a great job.

It was so nice to revisit the fables I remember from childhood. Andersen really knew how to paint a scene, and the magic he brings to his stories is second to none. The brilliant F. Murray Abraham voiced this audiobook, and while he does an excellent job, I found myself getting lost in the melody of his voice and losing focus on the stories themselves. I sure hope these stories are still being read to children these days. They're just brilliant and one of a kind; even if some of them lean towards the darker side of the spectrum.

Goes without saying that some fairytales in this collection are 5⭐️ but I’m rating all of them plus the performances of the voice actors. Its a great audiobook!
