Nutcracker door E.T.A. Hoffman

Two stories, both kind of fairytales in a way. One about a nutcracker of course who was really a prince, the other about a fairy who visited two children.

Nutcracker door Fiona Black

There are many versions of Hoffman's classic Christmas story, but I enjoyed this one immensely due to the dreamlike drawings of Scott Gustafson. It's like being in a little shop off a crooked alleyway, where a clockmaker's sign hangs over the entrance. Old world mixed with enchantment.

Looking at armed mice dressed as 17th century musketeers or gingerbread cookies come to life was a true delight. The colors are vibrant and if you happen to be playing Tchaikovsky in the background, the better. This is a small book for the child's hand and makes the perfect stocking stuffer for the holidays.

Nutcracker door E T A Hoffmann

This book is an example of fantasy. The story told makes the reader believe that the young girls grandfather has a nephew who turns into a nutracker and then she ends up saving him. The story is not possible, but the writter does an excellent job engaging the reader in this story. I would use this book in an intermediate classroom. The main type of media used is acrylics.
