He was the first writer to take the folk tale as a literary genre and create new stories, such as 'The Emperor's New Clothes', 'The Little Mermaid', 'The Ugly Duckling' and 'The Snow Queen'. His influence on children's literature is inestimable, yet his stories work on many levels. He died in Copenhagen in 1875.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJan Pienkowski was born in Warsaw in 1936. After creating his first book at the age of eight, Jan went on to excel in his chosen field of design, working in such diverse areas as television, theatre and greetings cards. Published in 1968, \u003ci\u003eA Necklace of Raindrops\u003c\/i\u003e was the first of several wonderful collaborations between Jan and Joan Aiken - and it was also the very first book Jan illustrated. For over forty years, he has also worked on the \u003ci\u003eMeg and Mog \u003c\/i\u003ebooks. He has since twice won the Kate Greenaway Medal for Illustration, and has created many instantly recognizable classics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                            \n                            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":44900479271073,"sku":"BBSNIJ9780241735466","price":16.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9780241735466.jpg?v=1744350335","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/hans-christian-andersens-fairy-tales-paperback-by-hans-christian-andersen","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
