BR1-09 The Nutcracker

A soft fluffy layer of snow covered Clara's house on Christmas Eve.(p.3)

Clara was waiting for one very special guest. The guest was come! The guest was her godfather. Something magical always happened when he was around. It's so surprised! He gave her a very special present. I was concerned about the present is. That night, Clara opened the present by the Christmas tree. The present was a wooden nutcracker doll, dressed like a soldier. The present was a tug with a message " I hope this protect you..." Protect? I thought it's mystery. Just then, she was asleep there. She woke up and noticed she was shrinking! She met the Nutcracker prince. He said that "The kitchen mice will kidnap you and I'm here to protect you." He helped Clara to the mice, but he fought the mice king and he was about to lose the king. Clara threw her shoe to the king. She helped the prince. After that, the prince took her two places to celebrate it. The two places were icy castle and the land of sweets. The both places were so beautiful! When she went back from two places to her home, she fell asleep. She woke up and she was near the tree. She thought it was a dream at first, but she saw the Nutcracker doll and thought maybe it wasn't just a dream. I think it is so mysterious!

This book is in the Usborne Young Reading series. It has such a cute illustrations. I want everyone to read this book.
