From the Publisher:
A great addition to any Christmas collection.
From the Inside Flap:
It is Christmas Eve in the forest and bear clubs Clara and Peter have been busy all day helping their parents prepare for the evening's festivities. Finally, it is time to open Grandpa's hand-made gifts from his workshop. There are dancing puppets on strings, colourful tin soldiers, and, most splendid of all, a handsome carved Nutcracker Bear.
When Clara can't sleep that night, she tiptoes downstairs intending to bring Nutcracker Bear upstairs with her. But, when she enters the moonlit room, she is astonished to find herself in the midst of a battle between the field mice and Nutcracker, leading his army of tin soldiers. As Calra calls a Christmas truce, Nutcracker grows before her eyes into a live fur-and-claws bear. He takes her hand in his and leads her on a fantastical voyage to the palace of Ursa Major.
Avril Tyrrell's light and evocative prose remains true to the original Nutcracker story and Frances Tyrrell's gorgeous animals and woodland settings, full of stunning detail and vibrant colours, combine to make Woodland Nutcracker a true children's Christmas classic, sure to be enjoyed again and again.
