Description
The story of The Nutcracker is told through music and illustrations. The Nutcracker is a ballet about a young girl named Clara who goes on a magical Christmas adventure with her toy Nutcracker. The Mouse King, the Sugar Plum Fairy, and the Land of Sweets are all part of the story. The music in the ballet is from The Dance of the Reed Flutes, The Waltz of Flowers, and The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.
