We are having an online tea party on April 2, 2021, in celebration of Hans Christian Andersen’s birthday. He was a Dutch writer born on April 2, 1805, and he gave us many of the fairy tales we grew up with. Just a few of the stories he wrote were “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” “The Little Mermaid,” “The Princess and the Pea,” “The Snow Queen,” “The Ugly Duckling,” and “Thumbelina.”
It’s almost time for the online tea party. Are you excited, yet?
“In summer they could be together with one jump from the window, but in winter they had to go up and down the long staircase, and out through the snow before they could meet."
