The Nutcracker and the Mouse King and The Snow Queen - Two Holiday Classics! :
Presented here are two holiday classics: E.T.A. Hoffmann's "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" (which formed the basis for the Christmas ballet "The Nutcracker") and Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen," (upon which Disney's "Frozen" is based).
First, we meet young Marie, young girl who is given a precious nutcracker as a Christmas present by her godfather, the enigmatic Drosselmeier. When the nutcracker is broken, Marie attempts to repair it and stays up late to tend to her new toy, but when the nursery is invaded by an army of mice - led by the seven-headed Mouse King - the nutcracker comes to life to both drive off the mice and escort Marie to a magical land of living dolls.
Then, in "The Snow Queen," we are introduced to childhood friends Gerda and Kay, whose relationship is shattered when Kay is infected by dark magic and disappears, spirited up to the Snow Queen's palace in the sky.
These two holiday classics are presented in their original and unabridged format and narrated by renowned audiobook performer Sara Nichols.
