“Book Descriptions: When Nell's father picks a forbidden Christmas rose for her, Nell is obliged to leave home, following the flower's owner - a great white bear - to his faraway castle. There Nell makes an amazing discovery: The bear is Snowbear Wittington, a handsome young man bound by a spell.

How can the spell be broken? Snowbear doesn't know. But when he allows Nell to visit her sick father, he tells her that if she shares his terrible secret with anyone, he will remian a bear forever.

As soon as Nell reaches home, her father begins to improve. At her leave-taking, though, he is anxious to know whom she is returning to. Will Nell keep the secret and break her father's heart? Or will she tell - and seal her husband's doom?

William H. Hooks's enchanting retelling of the Appalachian Beauty and the Beast, magically illustrated by Victoria Lisi, is as timeless a romance as the classic that we all know and love.
