On the darkest night of the year, children must beware the Snow Queen – and when a boy vanishes from his village, his best friend is the only one who can rescue him. And she needs your help on her quest to stop the Snow Queen! You’ll help our heroine decide what happens next, join in the song, and bring the best friends back together. This original, interactive adaptation is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s story, with an added tour of fairy tales from around the world.
