The classic fairytale by Hans Christian Andersen retold with simple text to help beginner readers develop reading stamina. Thumbelina is pretty and kind - and as tiny as a thumb. Flowers tower above her and birds can carry her on their backs. When she's abandoned in the outside world, she faces some very big adventures indeed. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.
Susanna writes fiction and non-fiction for Usborne. Her favourite things to write about are small monsters and talking animals. She used to live in London but now lives in a cottage on the edge of some woods. She is only sorry there are no bears or witches in them.
