Reading Notes Week 13: Fairy Tales & Stories by Hans Christian Anderson, Part 1

The Princess and the Pea: When a terrible storm hits, the old King discovers the Princess. He is astonished about her wet, wind blown appearance. As she plants a pea under 20 mattresses in the bed, I am very confused about what she is doing. She wakes up black and blue after feeling the pea under 20 mattresses, showing she is sensitive enough to be a real princess.

The Emperor's New Suit: The Emperor had a new coat for every hour of the day. I feel like I can relate to him because I am obsessed with fashion and buying clothes. He cares so much about what he is wearing and he feels more powerful when he is wearing a great Suit. 

The Brave Tin Soldier: This story is about a group of tin soldiers, all exactly alike, except for one who was made with only one leg. He meets a grand tin soldier women who also only has one leg, but he thinks she is too far out of his league.
