Here's the link to the edition I own that I like a lot: The Stories of Hans Christian Andersen: A New Translation from the Danish. Unfortunately this edition only contains 22 of the more then 160 tales that Hans Christian Anderson wrote. And here is a second newer translation that collects 30 of his stories: Hans Christian Andersen: Fairy Tales.And this final one contains most of the stories and is available as an e-book : http://www.amazon.com/Christian-Ande...stian+Andersen.This is the translation that Jean Hersholt did from the Dutch in the 1940's and is the one I grew up on.
Thanks for all the info.

I wish Audible had an inexpensive complete collection from the Brothers Grimm. There's one that's apparently complete, but the Whispersync price is $13, and that's too much.
