- Nuthead! Gather now!
Oh, we need to hurry. Mum's shouting. But you can't rush - you need different decorations for every occasion. A yellow crown will attract happy thoughts, and a pink one will be suitable for going on a trip. It's important not to forget the magic ring and the necklace. And if your mum is angry and tired, a princess dress will help... Oh, but now she's telling you to get dressed right away and says it's too cold to slide down the hill in princess clothes!
Mum hates winter and is angry. If it were summer now, she would have more fun. I wouldn't be Princess Nutcracker if I couldn't think of something to do!
Mum and little brother are long dressed and ready to go down the slide, while Nutcracker is still deciding which dress to wear and which necklace to adorn herself with (maybe all at once?). Mum is starting to get a little grumpy. But Princess Nutcracker knows how to make everyone happy. This cosy book about family routines and everyday wonders is aimed at young readers, but will cheer up the whole family.
Elina Hirvonen is a Finnish writer, journalist and documentary film-maker. She mostly writes for adults, but also enjoys writing for children. The story "The Winter Spell of Princess Nutcracker" was illustrated in a very cosy way by Finnish artist Mervi Lindman, whose illustrated books about the brave Pupule, Mile and her three friends Gustus and little Ingrid are loved by many Lithuanian children.

- Nutruktgalve! Tuoj pat renkis!
Oi, reikia skubintis. Mama shaukia. Bet skubeti negalima - juk kiekvienai progai reikia vis kitu puoshmenu. Geltona karuna pritrauks dzhiugias mintis, o rozhine tiks leidzhiantis i kelione. Svarbu nepamirshti stebuklingo zhiedo ir karoliu. O jei mama pikta ir pavargusi, pades princeses suknele... Oi, bet dabar ji liepia tuoj pat persirengti ir sako, kad su princeses rubais per shalta ciuozhti nuo kalniuko!
Mama nekencia zhiemos ir todel pyksta. Jei dabar butu vasara, jai butu linksmiau. Nebuciau princese Nutruktgalve, jei nesugalvociau, ka daryti!
Mama ir mazhasis broliukas jau seniai apsirenge ir pasiruoshe eiti ciuozhineti nuo kalniuko, o Nutruktgalve dar tik renkasi, kuria suknele vilktis ir kuriais karoliais puoshtis (galbut visais ish karto?). Mama po truputi ima nirshti. Taciau princese Nutruktgalve zhino, kaip visus pradzhiuginti. Jauki knygele apie sheimos kasdienybe ir nekasdienishkus stebuklus skirta jauniesiems skaitytojams, taciau pralinksmins visa sheima.
Elina Hirvonen - suomiu rashytoja, zhurnaliste ir dokumentiniu filmu kureja. Dazhniausiai ji rasho suaugusiems, bet mielai kuria ir vaikams. Pasakojima "Princeses Nutruktgalves zhiemos burtai" itin jaukiai iliustravo suomiu dailininke Mervi Lindman, kurios iliustruotas knygas apie drasiaja Pupule, Mile ir tris draugus Gustus bei mazhaja Ingrida pamilo daug Lietuvos vaiku.
