Description
Of course you know the Guardians. You've known them since before you can remember: Santa, the Tooth Fairy, The Sandman, The Easter Bunny and the others. But ...where did they come from? How did they become beloved, and worthy of holidays? And what nefarious evil doer was so awful that they were forced to band together to protect the children of the world?
Answers are revealed and imaginations unfurl in this treasure trove of a boxed set. Both a standalone collectible and the ideal complement to the mesmerizing Dreamworks Animation film Rise of the Guardians, this set includes the first three titles in the Guardians chapter book series: Nicholas St. North and the Battle of the Nightmare King, E. Aster Bunnymund and the Warrior Eggs at the Earth's Core!, and the story of everyone's favourite night-time sprite, the Tooth Fairy.

William Joyce does a lot of stuff but children's books are his true bailiwick (The Guardians series, Dinosaur Bob series, George Shrinks, and the #1 New York Times bestselling The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore, which is also his Academy Award-winning short film, to name a few). He lives in Shreveport, Louisiana. Talk to William Joyce and see upcoming work at @HeyBillJoyce on Twitter and Instagram.
