An incredibly beautiful volume of winter tales, bookended by Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen" and Alexandre Dumas's "The History of a Nutcracker."
The book itself is beautiful - bonded leather in ice blue with silvery gilt pages ♥ The tales are a mix of fairy tales and winter stories by the likes of Louisa May Alcott, Oscar Wilde, and Charles Dickens. The fairy tales are derived from Andrew Lang's twelve color-coded volumes of fairy tales and traditional tales from around the world.
A perfect way to welcome the season of ice and snow! ( )

Even at the present day, Mary is still queen of that beautiful country, where may be seen brilliant forests of Christmas; rivers of orangeade,sweet milk, and essence of roses; transparent palaces of sugar whiter than snow and clearer than ice; - in a word, all kinds of wonderful and extraordinary things may there be seen by those who have eyes sharp enough to discover them.
