I samarbejde med Forlaget Alinea, har vi fornøjelsen af at kunne udgive 10 af H.C. Andersens mest kendte eventyr - genfortalt af Jørn Jensen - som læsetræningsmateriale. Hvert eventyr er indlæst først i langsom hastighed, dernæst i moderat hastighed.

Eventyret om den frejdige soldat, der ved hjælp af den gamle heks og hendes fyrtøj til sidst vinder prinsessen og gifter sig med hende. Jørn Jensen, født 1946, børnebogsforfatter, uddannet guldsmed og lærer. Som ny lærer for de små klasser fandt han, at der var mangel på egnet læsemateriale til begynderlæsning, og det fik ham til selv at gå i gang med at skrive. Inspirationen henter han i sin egen barndom i 1950'erne, men også fra oplevelser med hans tre drenge danner grundlag for historierne.

Eventyret om Klods-Hans der ligesom sine brødre vil fri til prinsessen, men han må ikke få en hest som dem. Derfor rider han på sin ged og på vejen finder han en død krage og andre ting han vil forære prinsessen.
