Synopsis
A picture book retelling of the story that inspired Tchaikovsky's ballet. On Christmas Eve young Marie receives a wonderful gift--a Nutcracker which magically comes to life and takes her on an adventure through Candy Meadow and Bonbonville. Color illustrations accompany the text.

After hearing how the toy nutcracker that she and her brother received for Christmas got his ugly face, Marie helps break the spell he is under and watches him change into a handsome prince. Illustrated notes throughout the text explain the historical background of the story.
