Watch the Adventures of Young HC Andersen Trailer from World Book

World Book has posted a celebration of Hans Christian Andersen on their website and with it a fantastic CGI animated trailer for World Book’s new Young HC Andersen graphic novel series, licensed by GDC. 

From worldbook.com:

Once upon a time in the Danish town of Odense, there lived a fairy tale writer named Hans Christian Andersen. His friends called him H.C. for short! He wrote stories of mermaids, ballerinas, emperors, and kings. Initially, his tales appeared in a series of pamphlets, and later were collected and published in books. His stories became popular in the early 1840’s and made Andersen the best-known author in Denmark and the best-known storyteller throughout the world.

Andersen gave each tale its own style, but his stories can be roughly classified into several groups: imitations of folk tales (“The Tinder Box,” “Little Claus and Big Claus,” and “The Traveling Companion”); tales based on Andersen’s life (“The Ugly Duckling” and “She Was Good for Nothing”); tales that make fun of human faults (“The Emperor’s New Clothes” and “The Rags”); and philosophical tales (“The Story of a Mother” and “The Shadow”).
