Voice-over narration, thematic music and the artist’s hand combine to bring this classic tale to colorful life. For Christmas Margaret’s Granddad gives her the figures of a ballerina and a one-legged tin soldier joined together on a base shaped like a heart and tells her the story of how they became united forever. It is a story of love and bravery. (Molding Clay).
