Genevieve "Vi" Dubois has spent most of her life within the walls of London's most prestigious boarding school for young ladies. One Christmas night, she will not only venture outside of her comfortable world, she will learn about a world ruled by magic and about her birth mother, a woman she thought abandoned her many years ago. The more she learns about her past, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between those she can trust and those to want to use her as a pawn.

THE NUTCRACKER: A CHRISTMAS ADAPTION
Join Clara Stahlbum as she discovers the magic in the power of love, when her Godfather Drosselmeyer presents her with a special Christmas gift, a Nutcracker, who so happens to also be Drosselmeyer's long lost nephew. The classic Story originally created by author, E.T.A Hoffman, and soon transformed into what would be Tchaikovsky's greatest and most popular ballet of in the history of the arts. By now, the wonderful world of magic and fantasy has been adapted into many different translations, and this one is my own. The original story of Hoffman's, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King is divided into four chapters, keeping the language simple and elegant words. Tchaikovsky's ballet is divided into two acts, performed silently with graceful and complicated body language. I wanted to write an adaption of my own with three chapters, and a more descriptive storyline. So, please read, and enjoy for your entertainment: THE NUTCRACKERComplete![Invisible ✓ [A Cinderella Retelling]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/185385184-256-k756798.jpg)
