I recently told this classic take by Hans Christen Anderson to someone who needed a reminder of the inherent lesson of the story. ( She had unbelievably never heard it! )
I do not have this particular version, but am definitely going to order it based on the rave reviews.
This version is said to be cleverly illustrated and adapted to reading or telling to small groups. It is a modern and succinct retelling that works well for sharing aloud.
The story is apparently shortened but otherwise mostly faithful to the original telling, except for a surprise ending that I will not give away!
I'm thinking it would be a great way to incorporate character education and social learning into the classroom. Has anyone read this one? Please tell us about it in the comments area.
