About the Book

Gerda and Kai are neighbors and go everywhere together. In summer they have fun playing in the garden, but in winter they sit by the fire to listen to the stories the boy's grandmother tells. Her favorite is that of the Snow Queen, an evil woman, who sows everything with snow and frost wherever she goes. One day, in the middle of one of those stories, a gust of wind opens the window and a splinter of ice hits Kai. Quickly her body is frozen and the evil Queen comes into being to take them to her world. But Gerda has no intention of abandoning her friend.
