Retold by JooHee Yoon.
Illustrated by
JooHee Yoon.
Yoon faithfully retells Andersen's tale in sober prose and dazzling illustrations, created by hand drawing, relief printing, and computer techniques. The story of the one-legged toy soldier who falls in love with a paper ballerina and accidentally embarks on a series of adventures has its grim moments, and Yoon's art--with its layered patterns and textures, limited palette, and dynamic perspectives--revels in these.
