Be careful what you wish for. That's what the Queen discovers when after having 12 sons she wishes for a daughter. For at the very moment her beautiful daughter is born, her sons are transformed into wild ducks. When Princess Snow-Rose learns what happened to her brothers, she sets out to try to release them from their enchantment. She must weave and sew 12 shirts from nettles. And, as if that isn't hard enough, for three years she must stay silent and neither smile nor weep. This traditional Norwegian tale is a fabulous fable of determination in the face of great hardship.
