Some people read Dickens at Christmas time. For me, I read the nutcracker at Christmas time. This is my favorite holiday story and if you are like me and you love being taken on magical fairy tale rides and the girl and boy falling in love and living happily ever after, then this is the story for you. There are many childhood memories with both stories and even as an adult I still build memories through the story of the nutcracker. I recommend this book to all who enjoy to read.

I have always loved the story and ballet of the Nutcracker. I can't wait until it arrives. :)
I found the book charming, lovely, and enchanting. The minute I started, I couldn't put it down until the end. I also found the pictures to be a great asset to the beloved Nutcracker story. It is exciting to be able to read the Nutcracker from a different aspect and discovered new elements in the story since I only knew the story from seeing the ballet as a young child...

Absolutely wonderful!!! What a gem <3 <3 <3 I told myself to wait till Christmas to read this book, but I just couldn't resist the beauty in the story itself and in Valeria Docampo's illustrations. SO FREAKING GORGEOUS!!! I have been into "The Nutcracker" (and its ballet-adapted version) for a long time, and what a treat to read the original story with such magnificent pictures. Feels like Christmas already ha ha ^^ This is a book to keep and cherish forever <3 <3 <3 I wish I were Clara, embarking on an adventure with a handsome Prince in a fantastical world that one can only dream of...
