The story is about a tin soldier, who from his very birth turns out to be “not like everyone else”. All tin soldiers stand on two legs, but this one is one-legged and at the same time, of course, the most steadfast of all. Our soldier falls in love with a paper ballerina, but the forces of evil are going to prevent this beautiful love and instead the tin soldier embarks on a dreadful journey with a most surprising ending. The illustrations in this book will instantly immerse the children in the world of a fairy tale and will carry them along on a journey on a paper boat with the steadfast tin soldier.

Hans Christian Andersen
Hans Christian Andersen (2 April 1805 – 4 August 1875) was a Danish author. Although a prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels, and poems, he is best remembered for his literary fairy tales.
Andersen’s fairy tales, consisting of 156 stories across nine volumes and translated into more than 125 languages, have become culturally embedded in the West’s collective consciousness, readily accessible to children, but presenting lessons of virtue and resilience in the face of adversity for mature readers as well. His stories have inspired ballets, plays, and animated and live-action films.
