THE KIDS' READING ROOM; 'Andersen's Amazing Paper Cuttings'; Part 1
2005
Overview
Tonight, it might be his tale of the mermaid who trades her tongue for a pair of legs. Or of the young duckling teased and chased by other birds in the duck yard. But [Hans Christian Andersen]'s hands never stop moving. Watching the scissor blades move in and out of the folded paper is as spellbinding as the story itself. What will the final image be? The amazing paper cutting shown here reveals some of Andersen's life. The palm trees are from his travels to Italy, where he thought he should have been born. Theater stages are where he wanted to perform as an actor, dancer or singer. And the swans are Andersen, who felt he never belonged in the slums where he grew up, so he set a goal to become famous. And after much struggle and hard work, he reached that goal and soared like a swan.
