Speed and self-confidence, that’s Astrid’s motto. Nicknamed “the little thunderbolt,” she loves to spend her days racing down the hillside on her sled, singing loudly as she goes, and visiting Gunnvald, her grumpy, septuagenarian best friend and godfather, who makes hot chocolate from real chocolate bars. She just wishes there were other children to share her hair-raising adventures with. But Astrid’s world is about to be turned upside down by two startling arrivals to the village of Glimmerdal: first a new family, then a mysterious, towering woman who everyone seems to know.

Wonderful Christmas story!
What a fun adventure! I love that in this series, Alex and Katie get to change the outcome of stories. This book involves the kids in the traditional Nutcracker story, with the addition of other fun characters. I loved Aunt Karina's living miniature castle! What an amazing toy.
