The Snow Queen

 


The Snow Queen is a story told in seven parts, which we’ll be breaking down over the next several weeks. But first, an introduction: 


The Snow Queen was written by Hans Christian Andersen, published in 1844. Andersen has produced many classic, beloved stories - The Little Mermaid, Thumbelina, The Princess and the Pea, The Little Matchgirl, The Steadfast Tin Soldier. Some happy, some funny, some tragic. Of all his stories, The Snow Queen has always held a special place in my heart. It’s a story about faith. About friendship. About growing up. But mostly, it’s a story about love. 


It’s a beautiful story, and one we’ll be spending a lot of time with over the next few months. We will be coving one of the seven sections for each of the next seven weeks, and then moving on to other Snow Queen and Shards of Glass related content.
