Description

In this timeless tale a newborn princess, as white as freshly fallen snow, is born under a veil of tragedy. Raised by a proud queen who cannot bear the thought of anyone surpassing her beauty, the child soon finds herself the target of a jealous heart that demands her removal from the kingdom. When a hired huntsman is ordered to silence her, his compassion spares her life, and she escapes into the deep, whispering woods.

Lost and frightened, the young maiden stumbles upon a tiny, orderly cottage that belongs to seven humble miners who work beneath the mountains. She quietly shares their modest meals and tests each of their tiny beds, finally finding one that fits just right before slipping into sleep. The gentle giants soon discover her presence, setting the stage for a delicate friendship that will shape the rest of her story.
