Children's Book Nutcracker E.T.A. Hoffman Maurice Sendak Hardcover Dust Jacket

The tale of Nutcracker, written by E. T. A. Hoffman in 1816, has fascinated and inspired artists, composers, and audiences for almost two hundred years.  It has retained its freshness because it appeals to the sense of wonder we all share.  The world of Nutcracker is a world of pleasures.  Maurice Sendak's art illuminates the delights of Hoffman's story in this rich and tantalizing treasure.

This is the fifth printing of this great book.
