Retold by Neil Philip and illustrated by Sally Holmes along the lines of Arthur Rackham and in beautiful subtle colours, the Snow Queen is the most magical and profound of all Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales. A quest full of mystery, humour and adventure, its uplifting theme is the power of innocence and enduring love. When Andersen's father died in his childhood, his mother said 'The ice maiden has taken him'. The seven chapters are The Mirror and the Splinters, A Little Boy and A Little Girl, The Old Woman's Flower Garden, A Prince and A Princess, The Little Robber Girl, The Lapp Woman and The Finn Woman, and What Happened in the Snow Queen's Palace and What Happened Afterwards. Colour illus., 64 large pages.
