Heidi nos cuenta la historia de una pequeña huérfana de cinco años a la que su tía Dete tiene que llevar a vivir con su abuelo, un hombre solitario y algo rudo, que vive como un ermitaño en un bonito pueblo, Mayenfeld, de los Alpes suizos. Poco a poco, Heidi se irá ganando el cariño del anciano y de todos los habitantes del valle, entre los que encontrará a Pedro, el joven cabrero del pueblo, su compañero de aventuras. Su vida tranquila y alegre en las montañas se complicará cuando tenga que regresar de nuevo a la ciudad con su tía.

Una mamma anatra nacque sette anatroccoli! Tutti meravigliosi tranne uno… davvero brutto e spelacchiato. Il povero anatroccolo veniva sbeffeggiato da chiunque, tanto che decise di allontanarsi da tutti e di andare a vivere da solo. Non poteva sopportare di essere chiamato "il brutto anatroccolo". Passò così, per il piccolo, un lungo freddo e triste inverno. Poi in primavera avvenne il miracolo... il brutto anatroccolo si era trasformato in un meraviglioso e regale cigno. Una delle fiabe più belle di Andersen, che esplora temi di accettazione, trasformazione e bellezza interiore.

The September sun was glinting cheerfully into a pretty bedroom furnished with blue. It danced on the glossy hair and bright eyes of two girls, who sat together hemming ruffles for a white muslin dress. The half-finished skirt of the dress lay on the bed; and as each crisp ruffle was completed, the girls added it to the snowy heap, which looked like a drift of transparent clouds or a pile of foamy white-of-egg beaten stiff enough to stand alone. These girls were Clover and Elsie Carr, and it was Clover's first evening dress for which they were hemming ruffles. It was nearly two years since a certain visit made by Johnnie to Inches Mills, of which some of you have read in "Nine Little Goslings;" and more than three since Clover and Katy had returned home from the boarding-school at Hillsover. Clover was now eighteen. She was a very small Clover still, but it would have been hard to find anywhere a prettier little maiden than she had grown to be. Her skin was so exquisitely fair that her arms and wrists and shoulders, which were round and dimpled like a baby's, seemed cut out of daisies or white rose leaves. Her thick, brown hair waved and coiled gracefully about her head. Her smile was peculiarly sweet; and the eyes, always Clover's chief beauty, had still that pathetic look which made them irresistible to tender-hearted people.

Thumbelina is no bigger than your thumb! Thumbelina is content to spend her days rowing in a boat made from a tulip petal and sleeping in a cradle made from a polished walnut shell. Then one horrible night a toad kidnaps her, and she is tossed from one wretched adventure to another. Will Thumbelina be forced to marry the toad's son or spend her days deep underground with a rich mole? Only her steadfast kindness and bravery and the help of some loyal friends will lead Thumbelina to true love.
