Hans Christian Andersen: The Inspiring Story of a Genius in Farsi and English

From the cobbled streets of Odense, Denmark, to the grand halls of Europe’s literary world, young Hans’s journey was far from easy. Born into poverty and ridiculed for his awkward appearance and lofty aspirations, Hans clung to his imagination like a lifeline. As he grew older, he transformed his dreams into unforgettable stories—like The Little Mermaid, The Ugly Duckling, and The Emperor’s New Clothes—that continue to touch hearts around the globe.

This fully illustrated, bilingual book celebrates not just Hans’s famous tales, but the lesser-known story of his life: the setbacks he faced, the loneliness he overcame, and the strength he found in believing in his own voice. Readers will travel alongside Hans as he experiments with theater and poetry, battles rejection, and ultimately finds his place as a literary genius who bridged cultures and generations.

Told side-by-side in Farsi and English, this unique edition encourages young minds to explore language, culture, and the power of dreams.
