Not a good fit for
- Very young children who want only bright, sweet endings and reject sad plots

Reading tips
- Read one story each night, then ask the child to retell in their own words the most memorable image from the story.
- When reading The Little Mermaid and The Wild Swans, discuss with the child the price of the protagonists' choices to give up and to persevere.
- Parents may read A True Story first to judge whether the child can accept its realistic undertones before reading together.
- Read The Emperor's Nightingale alongside The Duel of the Two Roosters to appreciate Andersen's allegorical technique.
