Description Poppy is watching the snow fall outside her window when she realizes that the snowflakes are really Snow Children, dancing and whirling in the garden. The Snow Children whisk Poppy away to the Snow Queen’s wintry kingdom, where the Princess is having a party! Sibylle von Olfers’ (1881-1916) blend of natural observation and use of simple design has led to comparisons with Kate Greenaway and Elsa Beskow. Her other published works include Princess in the Forest, The Story of the Root Children, The Story of the Wind Children, The Story of the Butterfly Children and The Story of the Rabbit Children.
