Hans Christian Andersen, a great writer, was born in Denmark in 1805. He wrote many popular stories for children all over the world. April 2 is his birthday and it is also Children's Book Day.
When Andersen was a little boy, his father read him a story every day. He felt very happy at that time. But his father died when he was 11 years old. Then he had to leave school. Andersen started working as an actor and singer to make a living. He loved reading books so much that he went back to school at 17. His first book came out in 1835.
