The story that was the inspiration for The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis and more recently, Frozen by Disney is re-designed in celebration of 50 years of working with Bernadette Watts—one of Europe's most recognized and beloved fairy-tale artists, known in Europe simply as Bernadette.When a young boy is cursed and unable to detect goodness, a young girl goes on a courageous journey to restore his heart and free him from the palace of the Snow Queen.

The snowdrop appears as the first flower in the middle of winter, too impatient to wait for the summer. It must endure the severe cold and tauntings of the wind. The flower’s impatience and untimely appearance become symbolic of a young man’s lost love and a great poet’s fate. About H.C.
