One of the ten best illustrated childrens books of the year.\"\n-- New York Times Book Review\n\nThe tale of Nutcracker, written by E.T.A. Hoffmann in 1816, has fascinated and inspired artists, composers, and audiences for almost two hundred years. It has retained its freshness because it appeals to the sense of wonder we all share.\n\nMaurice Sendak designed brilliant sets and costumes for the Pacific Northwest Ballets Christmas production of Nutcracker and created even more magnificent pictures especially for this book. He joined with the eminent translator Ralph Manheim to produce this illustrated edition of Hoffmanns wonderful tale, destined to become a classic for all ages.\n\nThe world of Nutcracker is a world of pleasures. Maurice Sendaks art illuminates the delights of Hoffmanns story in this rich and tantalizing treasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Crown Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44905952575541,"sku":"ByrdShop_051755285X","price":26.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_051755285X_f02c1c72-ed97-4b93-b1b7-9d21f00531ca.jpg?v=1781341694","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/nutcracker-9780517552858","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
