K-Gr 2-Adaptations of two of Hans Christian Andersen's well-loved stories. The plots stay true to the originals, thus assuring popularity. In order to keep the books on a beginning reading level, much of the imagery from the original versions has been dropped and the texts are made up of short, easy sentences. Children will enjoy reading these tales on their own and finding out about the beautiful mermaid who longs to become human and the princess who wakes up black and blue after sleeping on 20 mattresses atop a small pea. Average-quality watercolor illustrations accompany the texts. Suitable choices for libraries building up their easy-reader collections.-Anne Knickerbocker, formerly at Cedar Brook Elementary School, Houston, TX Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
