Claraxnutcracker Stories

We all have heard the story of the nutcracker. Now get ready for a new twist! Clara a girl,cursed be homely forever, can can be returned to normal if someone loves her for who she is and confesses before her 15th birthday. A young man, cursed to be a wooden nutcracker cracker, can only be human again if a maiden with a pure heart can love him despite his outward appearance. But is Clara as homely as she seems? And will she and the nutcracker cracker find true love before it's too late?

For twelve-year-old Clara Stahlbaum, Christmas has always been special. It's when she has her family's annual Christmas party--and when magic happens. But Clara is maturing, and some of the Christmas charm is wearing off. When her eccentric godfather gifts her a wooden Nutcracker doll on Christmas Eve, her life is turned upside down forever. Clara is whisked into a fairytale adventure in her living room--and her ordinary-seeming nutcracker may have something to do with it.
