The Daydreamer

Meet Hans Christian Andersen, a teenage shoemaker's son who daydreams instead of studying for school. Whenever he falls asleep or gets lost in thought, he finds himself on fantastical adventures with swindling tailors, tiny creatures like Thumbelina and the Little Mermaid, and even a devil boy in Eden. As Hans searches for his mythical Garden of Paradise, these dream sequences become the basis for his beloved fairy tales - from "The Ugly Duckling" to "The Emperor's New Clothes".
