The Snow Queen and Other Stories

This project features four longer stories by Hans Christian Andersen.
Andersen's fairy tales, which have been translated into more than 125 languages, have become culturally embedded in the West's collective consciousness, readily accessible to children, but presenting lessons of virtue and resilience in the face of adversity for mature readers as well. They have inspired motion pictures, plays, ballets, and animated films. ( Summary from Wikipedia ) (2 hr 24 min)

It was good the first chapter, the lady with the ?French? Accent is very hard to understand I actually thought it switched part way through and had to really strain to make out the words.

One of the two readers was excellent, the other was nearly incomprehensible. Fantastic writing!
