Hans Christian Andersen was born back in 1805 on April 2. He is a Danish poet and novelist. He is the author of world-famous fairy tales for children and their parents, such as The Ugly Duckling, The Snow Queen, The King's New Dress, Ole Lukoye, The Princess and the Pea and many others. Hans was born into the family of a poor shoemaker and an equally poor laundress. Christian's mother even had to beg for alms in childhood, and later she was buried in the cemetery of the poor.
The boy grew up nervous and very sophisticated. He was receptive to others and emotional. He was afraid to go to school, because in those days, teachers did not disdain physical punishment. Then the mother sent the boy to a Jewish school, where such a punishment was prohibited.
Leaving Copenhagen at the age of 14, he told his mother that he was going to become famous, and he did not deceive her. His appearance was not particularly spectacular, but out of pity, Hans Christian Andersen received the roles at the Royal Theater, and they were, of course, secondary. The boy was thirsty for new knowledge, so he was allowed to study. They even interceded for him before the Danish king Frederick VI, with whose permission Hans went to study at the Slagel school, and then at the Elsinore school, and all this at the expense of the treasury.
The writer gained fame in 1829, when he published his first science fiction story. And in 1835 he strengthened his glory with fairy tales. And now children and their parents are happy to read Hans Christian Andersen's works online. Many of his tales can be watched in films and cartoons. For example, films: The Snow Queen (1966), A Tale of a Fairy Tale (1969), The Little Mermaid (1976), The Snow Queen (2002).
