SynopsisCelebrate the season with an innovative Advent calendar, story book set, and tree-trimming keepsake. Wonderfully illustrated and brimming with holiday spirit, this unique advent calendar features 24 jewel-like miniature board books to help children count down to Christmas. Each day from December 1st through Christmas Eve, open a book, just like the peek-a-boo window on an Advent calendar, and then hang it on the Christmas tree by its gold thread loop. Read in sequence, the books tell the beloved story of the Nutcracker, from a first glimpse of the Stahlbaum house, to the duel between the Nutcracker and the Mouse King, to the magical Sugar Plum Fairy. A treasured keepsake to reuse year after year., It's a marriage of two classics: The Nutcracker and Advent calendars. Front cover flaps part like stage curtains to reveal 24 full-color illustrated story-books. Books are numbered, and like the peekaboo windows of Advent calendars, they're meant to be opened and read, one per day, from December 1 until Christmas Eve. From a first glimpse of the Stahlbaum house (#1) to the duel between the Nutcracker and the Mouse King (#14) to the magical Sugar Plum Fairy (#20), the board books retell the complete story. In addition, with their gold-thread loops and four different trim sizes, the jewel-like books are designed to be hung on the Christmas tree year after year, The interactive advent calendar and Nutcracker story book set is back by popular demand. An innovative set of 24beautifully illustrated miniature books nestled into a board backer, The Nutcracker retells the classic Christmas Eve storyof Marie, Herr Drosselmeyer, and the Sugar Plum Fairy.
