Old Cabinet Selected Stories Part I - Stories written by H. C. Anderson  (English, Paperback, H. C. Andersoon)

Hans Christian Andersen, also named Hans , a famous writer from Europe, also a stepsister named Karen, was born in Odense, Denmark on 2 April 1805. Elders maintained a higher status and his father considered himself related to nobility (his paternal grandmother had told his father that their family had belonged to a higher social class.). Although it has been challenged, a persistent speculation, also supported by thinkers and historians like Danish historian Jens Jørgensen, suggests that Andersen was an illegitimate son of King Christian VIII. The creator of hundreds of fantastic stories was baptised on 15 April 1805 in Saint Hans Church (St John's Church) in Odense, Denmark. His certificate of birth was not drafted until November 1823, according to which six Godparents were present at the baptising ceremony: Madam Sille Marie Breineberg, Maiden Friederiche Pommer, shoemaker Peder Waltersdorff, journeyman carpenter Anders Jørgensen, hospital porter Nicolas Gomard, and royal hatter Jens Henrichsen Dorch.
