by Hans Christian Andersen (Author), Various (Illustrator)
Follow the journey of a one-legged soldier in Hans Christian Andersen's heartbreaking fairy tale, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, vividly brought to life in this new edition from Pook Press' Golden Age of Illustration Series.
A young boy receives a box of tin soldiers, one of which has only a single leg, yet proves to be unwavering in spirit. From his place on the tabletop, the steadfast soldier becomes enamoured with a delicate paper ballerina, who appears to share his quiet solitude. But jealousy soon intervenes, and through the mischief of a jack-in-the-box, the tin soldier is cast out into the wider world. Swept through streets and waterways, facing danger and chance at every turn, he remains resolute, his love never faltering despite the trials he endures.

Heath Robinson, Harry Clarke, and many more, breathing new life into Han's Christian Andersen's beloved stories.
