Summary

" Marsh King's Daughter " is a literary fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. The tale was first published  December 1858 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

An Egyptian princess falls into the evil power of the Marsh King. A child is born to her and is taken to be raised by a Viking woman. Beautiful but with a terrible character, Helga is transformed into a kind frog at night. When the girl becomes a young woman, she meets a Christian slave who preaches mercy and compassion. Changed by this encounter, Helga finds her true mother and travels with her back to Egypt. The story ends on a memorable note when Helga discovers herself in the future, and majestically changes into a swan.

This children's e-book is fully illustrated all-color (more than 30 color illustrations).

Young readers will love the charming all-color illustrations, while parents will appreciate the moral at the end of the story. The beautiful illustrations will captivate your child's imagination and bring them back to read it over again and again.

    "Common Ground is accessible to teachers at all levels yet firmly rooted in current questions of second language acquisition (SLA). One of its primary strengths is the authors themselves, both of whom are accomplished language teachers who understand the challenges and opportunities in communication-focused language teaching. Their experience, expertise, insight, and enthusiasm for language teaching translate into a book that is refreshingly practical for teachers, especially teachers who are striving to break from traditional drills commonly presented in textbooks. I hope this book finds its way into the hands of every language teacher who is looking for concrete examples of how SLA principles meet the realities of the classroom." —Stacey Margarita Johnson, Vanderbilt University
