Aprašymas

Fairy Violet sets off on a quest to confront the cruel Frost King and save her kingdom, in this gorgeously illustrated fairy tale adventure.

In this luminous reimagining of Louisa May Alcott's fairy tale, Virginia Hamilton tells the story of Violet—a small but mighty fairy. Violet knows her flower friends are in danger as the Frost King forbids sunlight in his kingdom. When the queen calls for a messenger to convince the Frost King to stop his destruction, Violet is first to volunteer. But the king is not easily convinced, and Violet soon finds herself imprisoned in the depths of the Frost King's frigid world. Will she be able to sway the king’s wicked heart and protect those she loves most?
 
Virginia Hamilton long admired Alcott’s fairy tale and took great measures to honor the message of kindness that Violet’s actions represent. While Hamilton passed away before completing this project, her son Jaime Adoff thoughtfully weaves together this special story for today’s young readers. Together with April Harrison’s magnificent artwork, this captivating picture book celebrates courage, perseverance, and the power that lives inside us all.
