Hans Christian Andersen book
Award-winning fairy tale book
More than 5,000 intense drawing hours
Awarded Hans Christian Andersen book
Kasper Købke addresses both children, adults and Hans Christian Andersen experts – and he has spent more than 5,000 intense drawing hours following in the footsteps of the world-famous fairy tale.
Købke has received Hans Christian Andersen Award 2017 and The Numskull Jack Award 2016 for the book that is published in a total of 8 languages.
The book is aimed both at children, adults and Hans Christian Andersen experts, as Købke has been faithful to Hans Christian Andersen’s fantastic stories – but at the same time Købke has incorporated around 1,000 references from, among others Hans Christian Andersen’s life, work and contemporaries – so regardless of age, you will always be able to discover a new detail or a new biographical reference in Købke’s Hans Christian Andersen drawings.
