Details

Little soldier, how brave you are!

This book is printed with custom inks on unique textured paper, lovely choices made to ensure a graphically striking book that will hold attention and catch the eye. The Steadfast Tin Soldier is the first story Andersen wrote without a folktale source or literary model, so it stands as a completely original work of the imagination, which changed the fairytale genre for all time.

"There were once five-and-twenty tin soldiers. They were all brothers, born of the same old tin spoon. . . . All looked exactly alike except one. He looked a little different as he had been cast last of all. The tin was short, so he had only one leg. . . . But just you see, he'll be the remarkable one."

Ideal for: anyone who finds the holidays quite magical

Mr. Boddington recommends doing this while reading: keeping your treasured nutcracker nearby

Fine print: Hardcover, 64 pages, published by Enchanted Lion, Retold and Illustrated by the lovely Joohee Yoon
