Told entirely with photographs by award-winning visual story-tellers Jules and Pierre-Jacques Ober, nothing is lost of the poignancy of the original, nor of the mystery and magic. This is not only a heartbreaking love story and a great adventure, it's also an excellent tool for learning. It explores themes such as persistence through adversity, jealousy, love and ultimately, transformation: nothing is ever lost but changes shape and continues anew.
'Extraordinary... remarkable... gives a special depth to this classic Andersen tale transposed into the Japanese landscape, culture and imagination.' Laura Legros, Atoutlivre
