A review by booknerdwithlipstick
Little Mermaid and Other Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen

4.0

The stories selection was good, the classic choices for an Anderson collection. The illustrations were wonderful and the interactive elements were fun even though I wish there were more. I'd say the stories are still aging well in themselves (although they definitely happen in a time with different chore values). I wouldn't read all these stories to a child (especially The Swineherd which is creepy and the moral is slut shaming) but it's a great fairytale book nonetheless. My favorite was The Nightingale
