Description - The Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen

The luminous art of three-time Caldecott Honor recipient Jerry Pinkney transforms the nineteenth-century Danish girl of Andersen's tale into a child plucked straight from America's melting pot, shedding new light on the invisibility of the poor among the prosperous-a circumstance as familiar in Andersen's day as it is in our own.

" A beautifully illustrated version of a classic tale."(Booklist, starred review)
