The Snow Queen

I read this when I was really little (more like I tried to read while my mother said the words to me).
Recently (for the moment), with the Frozen movie coming up, I was intrigued when I read it was mildly based in this book. So I said, well, I don't remember anything about it, so, why not? Besides, I read it Spanish when I was little, so it was even better to read it in English.
The story was fun, cute, kind of dark, typical childish ridiculousness that you can find in kids books, but with a major message behind it all, as always.
I've always though that good kids' books have this really big, dark, profound theme masked with cute things and not-so offensive villains. This story was no exception.
I did have a small disagreement with the my mother about the queen. I didn't actually though she was bad. I mean, she didn't exactly show any signs of it, she looked natural to me.
It was a really fun read, a little longer than what I expected, and easy to read. You should all read it at some point.
