Hans Christian Andersen is one of the greatest fairy tales writers in the world. He wrote a lot of best-known stories such as The Emperor’s New Clothes and The Ugly Duckling. His fairy tales have brought happiness to the children across the world. The tales have versions(版本) of over a hundred languages. Andersen was born in Denmark in 1805. When he was still a young boy, he was already very clever. He created a small toy theatre and made clothes for his puppets (木偶). He also loved reading. In 1816, his father died and he learned to be a tailor(裁缝). Later he worked in a factory. When he was fourteen years old, Andersen moved to the capital of Denmark to become an actor and gave performances in the Royal Danish Theatre. However, because his voice changed when he grew older, the job had to stop. Then he began to write poems and fairy tales.
