"The Snowman" is a literary fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen about a snowman who falls in love with a stove.
 It was published by C.A. Reitzel in Copenhagen as "Sneemanden" on 2 March 1861.
 Andersen biographer Jackie Wullschlager describes the tale as a lyrical and poignant complement to Andersen's "The Fir-Tree" of December 1844.
"The Fir-Tree" (Danish: "Grantræet") is a literary fairy tale by the Danish poet and author Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875).
 The tale is about a fir tree so anxious to grow up, so anxious for greater things, that he cannot appreciate living in the moment.
 The tale was first published 21 December 1844 with "The Snow Queen", in Copenhagen, Denmark, by C.A. Reitzel.
 One scholar (Andersen biographer Jackie Wullschlager) indicates that "The Fir-Tree" was the first of Andersen's fairy tales to express a deep pessimism.
