Magic is the keyword for Hoffmann's much-loved Christmas-themed tale of defiance, loyalty and wonder as Steve Patschke's clever adaptation, Zanna Goldhawk's richly coloured artwork and each fabulously engineered pop-up make every page an exciting adventure!

sparkling adaptation. This stunningly illustrated pop-up book retelling of that memorable yet always intriguing story is the perfect contender to be that adaptation for generations to come. In a whirlwind of fantasy, The Nutcracker's miraculous tale is told with a grand pop-up image on each page. These are created expertly by Zanna Goldhawk not only to showcase a warm and sophisticated yet whimsical colour palette featuring deep greens and blues, but equally to create a full and sensory learning experience.
