In this charming and witty adaptation, Hans Christian Andersen himself frames four classic tales where vanity, beauty
and magic, both real and imagined, spring to life in each tale. A princess learns a lesson from a prince turned swineherd,
a pixie is faced with a choice between art and appetite, an emperor is tricked into revealing his true colors and, in the
sweet conclusion, a duckling learns that true beauty is in self-knowledge and acceptance.
