When a wicked troll’s enchanted mirror shatters, tiny shards of its cruel glass fly into human hearts and eyes, twisting beauty into ugliness. One shard strikes Kay, a kind and playful boy, and changes him forever. Cold, cruel, and unrecognisable, he is whisked away by the mysterious and terrifying Snow Queen to her frozen palace.

But Gerda, his closest friend, refuses to give up on him. With only her courage, her love, and the help of unlikely allies - a crow, a prince and princess, a fierce robber girl, and a reindeer - Gerda sets out on an epic journey through enchanted gardens, icy forests, and storm-swept lands.

Will her devotion be strong enough to melt the ice in Kay’s heart and defeat the Snow Queen’s chilling power?
