Amber's Japanese father left when she was little, and her sister Bella was just a baby, so now she fills in the frustrating gap in her life with imagined conversations, and writes letters to Bella that seem to come from their father.

"A sister struggles to break the spell that has turned her ten brothers into swans; a mermaid leaves her underwater world behind for love; a girl journeys across unknown lands to rescue her friend from the clutches of the Snow Queen, who has imprisoned his heart in ice. These five renowned tales are some of the most magical and inspiring to spring from Hans Christian Andersen's rich imagination. Contains: 'The Snow Queen', 'The Wild Swans', 'The Nightingale',...
