Marie woke and she found herself in her own bed. She tried to explain what had happened the night before. However, no one believed her except Uncle Peter. Uncle Peter told Marie that there was a very interesting story about the nutcracker.

Uncle Peter started the story,”Long, long time ago, the queen of mice hid in a royal palace. One day, she lost her seven sons to the trap that the king had ordered to be placed. The queen mouse cast an ugly spell on the princess. The princess could only reverse the spell if she could break open the hardest nutshell. And that’s where The Nutcracker Prince came in. As soon as the prince broke open the shell, the princess became beautiful again. However, the spell transferred to the prince and made him ugly instead. Easily forgetting what the prince had done for her, she chased him off.”

After hearing the story, Marie started to believe that her ugly nutcracker was the prince in the story. The very next morning, a handsome boy came to Marie’s house. The Prince of Toy land was there at the door. Because of her genuine love, his curse had been lifted. He asked Marie to marry him. And so, Marie became the princess of Toy land and lived happily ever after with her prince. You may also like to read, Twas The Night Before Christmas Story.
