5.0 out of 5 stars A great holiday craft!, November 23, 2005
This review is from: Nutcracker Kit (Toy)
I bought this Nutcracker for my second grade daughter to paint for her grandparents for Christmas. Well, she loved it so much she didn't want to give it away. I was very pleased with the quality of this kit. The nutcracker is made of a nice wood and is very detailed. The paint and paintbrush were very high quality. Usually when I open paint in a kit I have to stir the paint with a toothpick before it can be used. In this kit, I opened the paints and they were ready to go. Also included was varnish to put on after the paint dries plus hair and a beard to glue on. Her finished product looks great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Correction to Editorial Review, October 25, 2005
This review is from: Nutcracker Kit (Toy)
Dear Ava Natov, editorial reviewer:

The story 'The Nutcracker and the King of Mice' was written by German author E.T.A. Hoffman (1776-1822).

French author Alexandre Dumas pere (father) (1802-1870) retold Hoffman's 'The Nutcracker' which is where we get the libretto (the text of the opera) for 'The Nutcracker' we are more familiar with today.

French author Alexandre Dumas fils (son) (1824-1895) neither wrote nor rewrote 'The Nutcracker'.

Amazon sells this book, translated from the German by Ralph Manheim, well-known German-language translator.
