Description
Excerpt from: "Thumbelina" by Hans Christian Anderson
"Tweet, tweet!" what was that Thumbelina heard? "Tweet, tweet!" Could it be the swallow?
The flutter of wings was round her. Little Thumbelina looked. How glad she was,
for there, indeed, was the little bird she had tended and cared for so long. She told him, weeping, she must not stay.
She must marry the mole and live underground, and never see the sun, the glorious sun.
"Come with me, come with me, little Thumbelina," twittered the swallow.
"You can sit on my back, and I will fly with you to warmer countries, far from the tiresome old mole.
Over mountains and seas we will fly to the country where the summer never ends, and the sunlight always shines.
Then little Thumbelina seated herself on her dear swallow's back,
and put her tiny feet on his outstretched wing.
She tied herself firmly with her little sash to the strongest feather of the bird.
And the swallow soared high into the air.
High above forests and lakes, high above the big mountains that were crested with snow, he soared.

VERY nicely done. (I don't comment often, by the way.) I've been looking for more fairy-tale images -- will bookmark your page and wait with anticipation for the next.

Almost a year and half after this image was posted but I'm glad I found it. I used to have an illustrated version of HCA's fairytales when I was young. I remember falling in love with the picture of Thumbelina before I even knew what that meant. Thank you for bringing this memory back and I'm going to have to see if my folks kept the book! :) A very lovely and special image.
