Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales: Ole Luk-Oie:

This one is one of the clever but still a bit strange stories by Andersen. It's about a small creature that knows the most stories in the world. He comes into people's houses and goes to the children. He squirts sweet milk into their eyes so they can't keep their eyes shut. Then he blows on their necks so their heads get heavy. This makes their parents take them to bed so he  can tell them his stories. He has two umbrellas and one of them has pictures on and this makes the good children have wonderful dreams. The other has nothing on it and it causes the bad children to have dull dreams and when they wake up they feel as if they have had no dreams at all. The main part of the story is the seven stories he tell this one boy over a week's time. I think out of the seen stories Ole Luk-Oie tell this child is the one he told on Tuesday because the scene he describes is beautiful. I won't tell you anything about the dreams because they are all completely different and are wonderful to read.
   The way Andersen sets out this story is different from the others because there are subtitles that tell which day of the week they're on. Normally, writers might have just done another paragraph and said the next day. I thought I might mention this because this might be the only one set out differently.
   I don't think I ever mentioned this but at the start of every story there is a little picture that takes place later in the story. I thought I should tell you and I'll edit my other posts and show you these pictures. Also, in some of the stories there is a colour plate and they are really beautiful so I'll do some pictures on them as well. When I finish editing my other post I'll put a link of my blog homepage (so you know) on all my social media sites. So here's the little image at the start:

That's all for this post thanks for reading and I'll see you next time. If you have any books you want me to read put them in the comments and I'll get round to them as soon as possible.
