    About this audiobook

    Here’s a marvellous tale by the famous Hans Christian Andersen, about a young woman whose royal identity is determined by using a pea hidden benieth a stack of mattresses, voiced by the wonderful Emma Forbes.

    Emma Forbes began her TV career in 1993 as a children's presenter on the BBC show 'Live & Kicking'. She went on to host "What's My Line?" and voice Mummy Hippo in the hit children's animated series "Peppa Pig" before moving to radio.

    Hans Christian Andersen

    Hans Christian Andersen was born in Odense, Denmark, in 1805. He endured a lonely, impoverished childhood consoled by little more than his own imagination. He escaped to a theatre life in Copenhagen aged 14 where the support of a powerful patron enabled him to complete his scant education, and to write. His poetry, novels and travel books became hugely popular. But it was his Fairy Tales, the first children's stories of their kind, published in instalments from 1835 until the time of his death in 1875, that have immortalised him. Translated into more than 100 languages and adapted to every kind of media, they have made Andersen the most important children's writer in history.
