Once upon a time, there was a beautiful little girl whose name was little Karen. Little Karen's family is poor and has no money to buy shoes. The poor little girl is barefoot in summer, but she can only drag a pair of stupid and heavy wooden shoes in winter. Little Karen felt very uncomfortable because of blisters on her little feet!

Later, a kind old woman took in little Karen, and the little girl had clean new clothes and many beautiful new shoes. She reads and writes every day and helps her grandmother with housework. People praised little Karen as a lovely little girl.

Little Karen has a wish in her heart: to have a pair of red dancing shoes like a princess. Little Karen has seen the princess's red dancing shoes, which are the most beautiful shoes in the world. They are so cute, like red roses. They are soft, like the feathers of a white swan. Little Karen often thinks: How happy it would be if her little feet could wear them!

One day, grandma found a pair of red dancing shoes exactly like the princess. The shoemaker said that these shoes were made for the earl's young lady, but they didn't fit her. Grandma bought those red dancing shoes, and little Karen just put her feet in them. How beautiful they are!

After little Karen got the red dancing shoes, she never wanted to wear any other shoes. Everyone who saw her said that these were the most beautiful shoes of little Karen. Little Karen was so happy that her feet jumped involuntarily when she heard their praise. Slowly, this pair of red dancing shoes has magic. As soon as little Karen puts them on, these shoes will take her to dance.

In winter, the old woman was ill, and she needed little Karen's care, but little Karen couldn't resist the temptation of red dancing shoes, so she put them on and went dancing secretly. Grandma is very sad. She told little Karen that it would win the magic of red dancing shoes.

Little Karen doesn't listen to grandma. She still wears red dancing shoes and goes dancing every day. One day, when she was dancing in the garden, she saw a little angel waving her wings. The little angel said to little Karen, "You are fascinated by red dancing shoes. They will make you keep jumping and never stop. "

Little Karen was very scared after hearing this. She regretted not listening to her grandmother and hoped that the little angel would get her red dancing shoes back. The little angel agreed to little Karen's request. Little Karen went back to her grandmother, who forgave her. She puts on old shoes and takes good care of her grandmother every day. The little angel saw it and smiled happily!

Creation background of red dancing shoes:

Andersen explained that the story originated from an incident he experienced when he was a child. According to his records, a wealthy female customer gave his father a red silk scarf and asked him to make a pair of dancing slippers for her daughter. His father made it with great care, using leather in addition to silk scarves, but female customers said that the shoes made were rubbish. She said that her father didn't do anything but ruin her silk scarf.

"In that case," said his father, "I might as well destroy my leather." Then his father cut his shoes in front of the female customers.

Artistic features of Andersen s fairy tales;

Andersen's writing is humorous and soft, smart and light, full of heavy sadness and sadness. Many of his techniques are exquisite but not pretentious, and his themes are profound but not rigid.

He can make those romantic, ancient, affectionate and weak elements in the literary tradition contact with those modern, rapid, indifferent and casual emotions and generate magnetic fields, such as stories such as Thumbelina and The Old Man Always Does Things Right, so that simple hearts, simple ideas and ancient principles of life radiate homesickness in the atmosphere of modern life.

Many tragic narratives in Andersen's world reveal that the author expresses the beauty and kindness of human beings with tragic stories of different themes, and shows the tragic characters' yearning and pursuit for hope, life, love and happiness.

At the same time, while exploring the aesthetic value of tragic characters, he put the lofty life connotation and personality of tragic characters on the high level of human spiritual realm. Therefore, the author's aesthetic tendency, the kind of affirmation and praise that the author poured into the characters, is full of warmth and warmth.

The poetic narration of death is another feature of the tragic beauty of Andersen's fairy tales. Death, the most taboo word of mankind, marks the end of life. Therefore, in the literary description related to death, there is an indissoluble bond with sadness, tears, pain, tragic and tragic mentality. The uniqueness of Andersen lies not only in his indelible contribution to the historical development of children's literature in the world, but also in his many personal characteristics in fairy tale creation.

Here, Andersen injected smile and calmness, the most attractive literary expression in the world, into the description of death. Therefore, those people in his works who have gone through the life course or experienced the tragedy of life, old and young, will no longer shed painful tears when they leave this world, but will melt themselves into nature or leave this world with a smile.

For example, in Grandmother and other works, the author's handling of death is gentle and graceful. This work embodies the author's deep nostalgia for her grandmother, highlights the eternal beauty of her grandmother, and writes the spiritual beauty of her nostalgia for past love. In Andersen's works, although her grandmother is full of wrinkles and white hair, her eyes are "as bright as two stars in the sky, even more beautiful than the stars".

What she cherishes is the rose in the Bible. Although it has withered, it is all grandma's spiritual sustenance, because it was given to her by a handsome man who devoted all her feelings to it. Only when the old grandmother faces it will she show the gentlest smile.

The work is about death, but the author casts a layer of fantasy sand on her dead grandmother in a sad and elegant atmosphere. Therefore, the death of a sad relative becomes the painless disappearance of the body. This literary presentation of death with warm style and poetic illusion makes Andersen's tragic fairy tales more memorable.
