Beautiful and kind Princess Sophie is soon to ascend to the throne. But the wicked queen, Sophie's stepmother, thinks her stepdaughter is too soft-hearted, for there is nothing worse than kindness for ruthless people. Rulers must be firm and cruel; they have no right to weakness or fear. Wanting to retain power, the queen orders the gamekeeper to kill Sophie and take her heart. However, seven forest men save the girl by inserting a clockwork mechanism instead of her heart... And now Sophie faces a difficult choice: to hide, to accept the oppressive rule of the queen or to fight. ‘Iron Heart’ - a new interpretation of the story of Snow White, told by Jennifer Donnelly, bestselling author of “Tea Rose” and “Sister”, winner of numerous awards, including the Carnegie Medal.
