Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintry Secret movie storybook

Disney Frozen: Big Golden Book (October 1, 2013)
Pages
On the edge of a fjord, a deep mountain lake ringed by majestic peaks, the kingdom of Arendelle was a happy place in Norway. During the day, shopkeepers, fishermen, and ice sellers–citizens kept the city bustling. At night, the northern lights often lit up the sky in beautiful patterns. The rulers of Arendelle, King Agnarr (Maurice LaMarche, 55) and Queen Iduna (Jennifer Lee, 42), were kind. Their young daughters, Elsa and Anna, were the joy of their lives.
Pages
The older daughter, Princess Elsa (Eva Bella, 10), had a magical secret–she had the power to create snow and ice! Princess Anna (Livvy Stubenrauch, 8) adored her big sister and wanted to spend every minute with her. One night, Anna convinced Elsa to turn the Great Hall into a winter wonderland. They made a snowman together, and then Elsa created ice slides so Anna could soar through the air!
Pages
But Elsa accidentally hit Anna with a blast of icy magic. Anna fell to the ground, shivering. A streak of white appeared in her hair. Frightened, Elsa called out of help. The worried Agnarr and Iduna rushed their daughters to the trolls. They were mysterious healers who knew all about magic. A wise old troll named Pabbie (Ciarán Hinds, 60) was able to cure Anna by helping her to forget the injury–and the magic. He also had a warning. "Elsa's power will grow," he said. "She must learn to control it."
Pages
Elsa was afraid that she would hurt her sister. They spent their time practicing to keep her magic under control. It was difficult, especially when she became upset. As a precaution, Agnarr decided to keep the castle gates closed. Anna could remember Elsa's powers, but she still wanted to play with Elsa. No matter how much Anna pleaded, her sister refused to open her door.
Pages
In Siberia, Russia, Constantine (Matt Vogel, 43), the World's Most Dangerous Frog–and Kermit's twin appearance breaks out from a Gulag prison, freed the other prisoners, and attacks the guards. As he got outside, he blew up the Gulag and says, "It's time to light the lights."
Kermit the Frog (Steve Whitmire, 54) and the Muppets sit at at the Hollywood restaurant with Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais, 52), the tour manager. "Ready to be world famous?" asked Dominic. "I think we have to get settled first, hone the show, get some new material, and then go on a world tour." agreed Kermit.
Pages
Years passed in Arendelle, but the girls didn't grow any closer, even when their parents were lost at sea. Then one summer day it was time to crown Elsa (Idina Menzel, 42) as queen. Guests from far away sailed to Arendelle for the coronation. Anna (Kristen Bell, 33) was excited to meet so many new people–especially a handsome prince named Hans (Santino Fontana, 31)!
Meanwhile, Elsa was still struggling to hide her powers. She just hoped she could make it through the day. Suddenly, bells rang. The ceremony was about to begin.
Pages
Tinkers' Nook was bustling with activity. The fairies were making snowflake baskets for the fairies of winter. A flock of snowy owls soon arrived for the baskets, bringing a final shipment order for Fairy Mary (Jane Horrocks, 49) with them. "Goodness," Fairy Mary said. "They need twenty more baskets for tomorrow's pickup!" Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman, 25) watched as the magnificent birds headed off toward the Winter Woods. "There's a whole other world over there," she said to herself.
It was a beautiful day in the Valley, and everything was as it should be. The sun was beaming down, families were having fun, and Scrat (Chris Wedge, 56) the saber-toothed squirrel were chasing down a meal. And Sid (John Leguizamo, 49) the sloth was getting no respect. "What's going on here?" Manny (Ray Romano, 55) the mammoth asked, interrupting a spirited game of Hit-the-Sloth. Sid looked relieved to see his friends Manny and Diego (Denis Leary, 56) the saber-toothed tiger. Like many of Sid's plans, his Campo del Sid summer camp wasn't turning out quite as he had imagined. "I told you, Sid, you're not qualified to run a camp," Manny said as he freed Sid from the clutches of his campers. Diego agreed, Sid could barely take care of himself, let alone a group of kids. Sid was hurt by his friends' lack of support. "You guys never think I can do anything," he said. "I'm an equal member of this team, you know. You need to start treating me with respect!" Sid stormed off.
Pages
Meanwhile, the Muppets are on a world tour! The gang has taken the show on the road, and the first stop is in Berlin, Germany. "Okay, guys," Kermit tells the Muppets, "let's stick with what we know. We'll open with a cabaret number..." The Great Gonzo (Dave Goelz, 67) raises his hand. "Kermit, when do I do the indoor running of the bulls?" Miss Piggy (Eric Jacobson, 42) bats her eyelashes. "Kermit, what if I do four or five musical numbers?" "Guys!" shouts Kermit. "We can't just do whatever we want. This is our opening night. Let's play to our strengths."
Pages
Piggy follows Kermit back to his dressing room. "Is this a good time to discuss our upcoming European wedding? I have 23 swatches for the seat covers for the reception and eight font choices for the menu." "What about being involved in the decision to get married in the first place?" protests Kermit. "You never let me do what I want!" huffs Piggy, and she storms angrily out of the room.
Kermit feels bad. He knows someone has to keep the show running smoothly, but it is a hard job sometimes. Dominic suggests for Kermit to go for a quiet stroll along the river to clear his head. He is gone for a while...
Pages
Later that day, Tink volunteered to help her friend Fawn (Angela Bartys, 29) take animals to the Winter Woods. But Fawn told Tink that they could only bring animals to the border, and weren't allowed to go into the Winter Woods. Then a sleeping marmot distracted her. "No hibernating yet!" she called into the marmot's ear. "You do that in winter!"
Even though she knew it could be dangerous, Tink was very curious about the Winter Woods. With Fawn distracted, Tinker Bell jumped across the border!
Pages
Tink gazed in wonder at the beautiful wintry landscape, enchanted by the delicate snowflakes that drifted down all around her. Suddenly, her wings began to grow and it starts sparkle in a burst of colorful light–and she heard the faint sound of a baby's laugh!
Pages
The magical moment ended when Fawn yanked Tinker Bell back into autumn. Fawn touched Tink's wings and gasped. They were freezing! Fawn rushed Tink straight to the fairy hospital. A healing fairy (Jodi Benson, 52) warmed up Tink's wings. Then he warmed them until they were back to normal again.
Pages
Tink was on a mission to find out what had made her wings sparkle. She went off to the state library, where she found a wing-shaped book she hoped would give her some answers. Unfortunately, a bookworm had chewed through the pages! A fairy named Scribble (Thomas Lennon, 43) told Tink that the author of the book–the Keeper–might be able to help her. But he lived in the Winter Woods.
Pages
Manny and Diego were looking after his campers when they heard a commotion. "Fast Tony says the world's gonna flood!" screamed a panicked aardvark. Other animals quickly joined in the hubbub. An armadillo named Fast Tony (Jay Leno, 63) was a smooth talker who would do or say anything to make a buck. Now he was making up stories about a big flood, just so he could sell special equipment for breathing underwater. Manny confronted Fast Tony. "Why are you scaring everybody with this doomsday stuff?" "Haven't you heard?" cried another aardvark. "The ice is melting!" The crowd continued to argue back and forth until someone screamed, "Look! Some idiot's going down the Eviscerator!" The Eviscerator was the steepest, scariest, tallest, deadliest ice slope around. "Please tell me it's not our idiot," Manny said aloud. But it was! The idiot was Sid! Sid had come up with some bad ideas before, but jumping off the Eviscerator to gain some respect was his worst yet. Luckily, his friends were there to save him–again.
Pages
Manny snatched Sid up with his trunk just in time, but slipped and fell backwards, sending Diego sliding across the ice. When Diego stood up, the ice around him started to crack. Through the fragile ice, the friends saw water! Diego eyed it anxiously, and then leaped to solid ground. "You know, if I didn't know you better, Diego, I'd think you were afraid of the water," Sid said. Diego grabbed him by the throat. "Okay, okay, good thing I know you better," Sid said. "Guys, Fast Tony was right," Manny cried. "Everything is melting! We've got to warn the others!" The friends began to make their way across a narrow ice bridge. Suddenly they heard a cracking sound. Then–whoosh–the ice gave way! Manny, Sid, and Diego were free-falling at breakneck speed–down the Eviscerator!
Pages
When the friends landed in a crumpled heap at the bottom, Fast Tony was still addressing the skeptical audience. Suddenly, a voice came from above. It was a Lone Gunslinger Vulture (Will Arnett, 43), perched in a nearby tree. "Flood's real, all right. And it's coming fast. Ain't no way out. Unless...you can make it to the end of the Valley. There's a boat. It can save you." The crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief. "But y'all better hurry. Grounds melting. In three days time, the water's gonna hit the geyser fields...BOOM!" Everyone jumped back, terrified. The Lone Gunslinger continued on. "There is some good news, though… The more of you that die, the better I eat." And with that, he flew off.
Pages
Soon all the animals in the Valley were running for their lives. In the midst of the mayhem, a huge ice boulder fell from a melting glacier. Animals screamed in terror and fled, too upset to notice that something inside the boulder had shifted. "Keep it moving. Keep it moving," Manny called as he tried to direct the traffic. But everyone was too frantic to pay attention. The Valley was in chaos. Panicked animals hustled this way and that preparing for their journey.
Sid ran up to Manny, his face stuffed with berries. "Manny, Manny. I just heard you're going extinct." "I am not going extinct," Manny replied, furious. But almost as soon as he said it, a family of aardvarks walked by and he called out "Kids, look! The last mammoth!"
Pages
That evening, while the others are preparing for the show, Constantine and Dominic arrived, becoming partners in crime. The Muppets noticed that Kermit has a cold and his voice sounded different. "Let's do whatever Dominic says." Constantine said. Suddenly, Animal (Eric Jacobson, 42) noticed that something was off about Kermit. "Bad frog! Bad frog!" Animal shouted, biting Constantine's arm. "Let's go hang out backstage." Dominic said.
Pages
Constantine presented the plan for Dominic. "We steal the painting and then we'll have all we need to steal the unstealable, the Crown Jewels of England." In order to get to the Crown Jewels, hidden in the Tower of London, they'd have to steal a map, a key, and a locket, located in museums all over Europe. Just then, Scooter (David Rudman, 50) peaked out the door. "15 seconds to curtain."
When Constantine began to introduce the show, he looked scared. He was pretending to be Kermit, which he had a cold. He passed out and falls out of "Die Muppets" sign and into the stage. Luckily, Scooter takes charge of the show. "It was vertigo. Not stage fright." said Constantine  The show begins with Christoph Waltz's (Himself, 57) waltz with Sweetums (Matt Vogel, 43). Crazy Harry (Matt Vogel, 43) blows up the scenery to the beat of the music.
Pages
Constantine and Dominic had the first plan of the heist: Steal the Painting (which is actually the map). They looked until they found the portrait that labeled Colonel Thomas Blood. "Now to cover our tracks." whispered Dominic, picking up the next portrait, which set off the museum's alarm system. "Let's get out of here!" cried Constantine  They knew that the police were after the burglars and fled the museum, leaving the Lemur token in the floor.
Pages
To Elsa's relief, the coronation went exactly as planned. Afterward, a party was held in the Great Hall. Anna and Prince Hans and spent the evening laughing and talking. It was love at first sight!
Anna introduced Hans to Elsa–and announced that they were engaged. Elsa objected. "You can't marry a man you just met." "You can if it's true love!" Anna replied. "My answer is no," Elsa said firmly, and started to leave the room.
Pages
Anna couldn't believe that Elsa was walking away without talking to her. Feeling upset, she grabbed Elsa's hand and accidentally pulled off her glove. "Why do you shut me out?" Anna asked.
"Enough!" Elsa cried. Suddenly, an icy blast shot from her uncovered hand–and coated the room in ice! Everyone stared in shock.
Pages
Frightened by her own power, Elsa fled from the hall. As she ran through Arendelle, everything froze around her. "Stay away from me!" Elsa warned her subjects. She didn't want to hurt anyone.
The townspeople were confused and afraid. "Monster!" yelled the Duke of Weselton (Alan Tudyk, 42). Even the fjord froze as Elsa stepped onto the water. All the ships were locked into the ice. Elsa quickly crossed the fjord and ran up into the mountains.
Pages
As Elsa climbed higher, she let her powers loose. For the first time, she didn't have to hide them. She used her magic to create a beautiful ice palace. It would be Elsa's new home, where she could be free–and alone. She'd never hurt anyone again.
Pages
The next day, the Interpol agent named Jean Pierre Napoleon (Ty Burrell, 46) and Sam Eagle (Eric Jacobson, 42), his fellow CIA agent, arrived at the museum. "Two priceless paintings stolen and one average painting of an obscure English colonel. This has all the markings of the work of the Lemur." Jean said. "What's a lemur?" Sam asked. "Only the second most wanted criminal in the world. And also a rat-monkey from Madagascar." He handed Sam the Lemur file, which he opened it and lots of Lemur tokens fell out.
Pages
Tinker Bell put on a warm outfit, packed the book in a bag, and snuck into the tinkers' workshop. Then the adventurous fairy climbed inside a snowflake basket. Tink's friends watched closely.
In a moment, Tink was soaring through the air. The young owl that had picked up the basket had no idea there was a stowaway inside!
As the owl crossed into the Winter Woods, Tinker Bell felt a cold blast of air. She peeked out of the basket and saw a majestic valley spread before her!
Pages
Suddenly, the owl accidentally let go of Tink's basket! She crashed onto the landing area, sending snowflakes scattering everywhere. Tinker Bell ducked behind the basket to hide–then realized that her book had been flung onto the ice. She had to get it back before Sled (Matt Lanter, 30), a winter fairy found it!
Just then, Lord Milori (Timothy Dalton, 67 or 69), the Lord of Winter, arrived. "Now, that is odd," he said, grabbing the book from Sled who had spotted it. Milori asked Sled to return the book to the Keeper.
Pages
Tinker Bell secretly followed Sled to the Hall of Winter. When she arrived, she spotted the Keeper, whose name is Dewey (Jeff Bennett, 51). Then another winter fairy rushed into the room and asked Dewey why her wings were sparkling! Suddenly, Tinker Bell's wings began to sparkle, too–just like when she had crossed the border the other day! An irresistible force pulled her toward the fairy. The fairy's name was Periwinkle (Lucy Hale, 24).
Pages
The girls hoped Dewey could explain what was happening to their wings. He brought Tink and Peri over to a giant snowflake. "Just put your wings into the light," he told them.
A few seconds later, the chamber filled with images showing the journey of a baby's first laugh–a laugh that split in two and landed on a dandelion. One half traveled to Pixie Hollow, and Tinker Bell was born. The other half blew into the Winter Woods, and baby Periwinkle arrived. That meant Tink and Peri were sisters!
Pages
Suddenly, Milori arrived. He was concerned about the book Sled had found. "What if a warm fairy brought it here?" he asked Dewey. "If a warm fairy comes here, you will send them back."
Peri and Tink, who had been hiding behind the snowflake, gasped. Did this mean that Tinker Bell would have to go home already?
Pages
Dewey told the girls they could have a few days to visit before Tink had to go home. Tink put on her coat and earmuffs to keep warm. When they got to Periwinkle's house, Peri showed Tink a bundle of items she had been collecting. "You collect lost things, too?" asked Tink. "I call them found things," Periwinkle replied, smiling.
Pages
Next, they went to the Frost Forest, where Peri introduced Tinker Bell to her friends, Gliss (Grey DeLisle, 40) and Spike (Debby Ryan, 20). They went ice-sliding, which was like sledding on a frozen roller coaster. Tink had a wonderful time!
Far away, Kermit was at the Gulag in Siberia, Russia! He was arrested by police after Constantine glued a fake mole onto Kermit's cheek while he was taking a quiet stroll along a river in Berlin. When Comrade Nadya (Tina Fey, 43), the Gulag warden puts Kermit behind bars, she tells a story about Constantine being abandoned by his mother as a tadpole and raised in a bomb factory in Russia. "I'm terrified of bombs." Kermit assured.
Pages
Back at the tour train, Constantine and Dominic pull out Colonel Blood's painting and turned it over. Dominic ironed it, saying, "Write it in lemon juice, then simply apply heat to reveal Colonel Blood's map." The map entitles "How to Steal the Crown Jewels of England. Secret Tunnels of the Tower of London, drawn by Thomas Blood, Colonel 1670." The symbols read "KEY + LOCKET + JEWELS". The key is hidden in the marble bust at the Prado Museum in the next stop on their tour: Madrid, Spain.
Pages
Elsa's midsummer blizzard covered Arendelle with snow and ice. The whole kingdom was panicking, and Anna knew she had to find her sister. Leaving Hans in charge of the kingdom, she rode into the mountains. But her horse got scared and threw Anna off. Anna was lucky to find a little trading post.
Inside the trading post and sauna, Anna bought warm clothes from its owner Oaken (Chris Williams, 45). Just then, the door flew open. In came a mountain man covered in snow. His name was Kristoff (Jonathan Groff, 28), and he said that the storm was coming from the North Mountain.
Pages
That gave Anna an idea. They found Kristoff in the stable with his reindeer, Sven. Anna asked him to take them to the North Mountain to find Elsa. Kristoff agreed. "We leave at dawn." "No," said Anna. "We leave right now."
Pages
As they headed up the mountain, Anna explained how her sister had started the storm. And she told Kristoff about her true love, Hans.
Suddenly, a pack of wolves began to chase them! Working together, Anna, Kristoff, and Sven escaped by crossing a deep gorge. But Kristoff's sleigh crashed into the rocks below.
Pages
The Muppets head to Spain. "What's the set list for tomorrow, chief?" asks Scooter. "I don't care," answers Constantine. "Do whatever you want." Gonzo pleads, "Could I do indoor running of the bulls?" "Kermie, if he can do his thing, why can't I sing my five songs?" adds Piggy. Constantine waves a hand. "Sure, Zongo. Who cares? And you can, Pig, who cares?" The Muppets cheer and run off to prepare to do whatever they want in the show!
It seems as if Constantine has had a change of heart, so Piggy follows him again to talk. "Kermie?" she starts. Constantine turns to her. "Ah, Miss Pig. Ah yes, I am your man, and you are my lady. Stick with me, as we are meant to be together forever." "Oh, Kermie!" she cries, blushing.
Pages
That night at Madrid, Constantine refuses to perform since he had a stage fright in Berlin. Dominic pulled him into the bathroom as Scooter hears them argue. "You have to go, Number One." begged Dominic. Constantine says, "No. You can't make me go. Not after happened last time." "I'm begging you. Go! Go, Number One!" cried Dominic. To help him, Dominic lets Constantine watch TV to study Kermit's speech patterns.
Pages
As he introduced the show, Constantine didn't suffer and worked his speech pattern. "It's El Muppet Show, with our very special guest, Salma Hayek!" When Constantine fled, Gonzo and Salma Hayek (Herself, 47) performs the indoor running of the bulls stunt, Piggy takes her first musical number with the flamingos, and Dr. Teeth (Bill Barretta, 49) and the Electric Mayhem performs their epic mayhem jam session. Walter (Peter Linz, 46) thought that the show was chaos.
Constantine and Dominic had the next plan of the heist: Steal Colonel Blood's Key. They smash 249 busts until they found the key. "Nice of him to label it." Constantine said. Dominic read the instructions at the key. "To him that seeks the locket faire look beneath the vaults of eire". They know where the locket is hidden in the Irish National Bank. The next stop on the Muppets world tour is Dublin, Ireland.
Pages
By dawn, they were almost at the top of the mountain. They looked down toward Arendelle, and it was covered with storm clouds. Outside the Valley, Manny, Sid, and Diego stopped for a break from their journey. Manny sat quietly by a river thinking about how his world was changing. He thought about the flood and how long it had been since he'd seen another mammoth. Maybe it was true–maybe his kind was becoming extinct. That's what Sid had been telling him. Manny thought about his family she used to have, his wife and child that had died, and he felt lonely. "I guess it's just you and me now," he said sadly to his reflection. Manny's thoughts were interrupted by a loud crack. When he looked up, he saw another mammoth hanging from a tree branch. Boom! The branch broke and the mammoth tumbled to the ground. Manny stared for a moment, unable to speak. Then he yelled, "I knew it! I knew I wasn't the only one!"
Manny was excited to find another mammoth, but she soon realized there was something very special about this mammoth. Ellie (Queen Latifah, 43) thought she was a possum! She climbed tree, hung upside down, and even played dead.
Pages
Ellie introduced Manny, Sid, and Diego to her possum brothers, Crash (Seann William Scott, 37) and Eddie (Josh Peck, 27). "I don't think his tree goes all the way to the top branch!" Manny whispered warily to Sid. But Sid was already hatching a plan. He thought Manny and Ellie should stick together–they might be the only mammoths left. "Manny wants me to ask you if you'd like to escape the flood with us," Sid said to Ellie. Manny tried to protest, but it was too late. Ellie and her brothers agreed to join them. Together the group set out on their journey.
Pages
Here it was an icy wonderland. "I never knew winter could be so beautiful," Anna said. "But it's so white," added a voice. "How about some color? I'm thinking crimson or chartreuse..."
It was a living snowman (Josh Gad, 32)! "I'm Olaf," he said, explaining that Elsa had made him. Anna asked Olaf to lead them to her sister. "We need Elsa to bring back summer."
Pages
Olaf grinned. "I've always loved the idea of summer," he said. "The warm sun on my face and getting a gorgeous tan." "I'm guessing you don't have much experience with heat," said Kristoff, smiling. "Nope," Olaf replied. "Come on! Let's go bring back summer!"
Traveling through the rapidly melting landscape wasn't easy for the group. Ice crashed down around them, water crept ever-closer, and tempers began to flare. "Will you cut it out?!" Diego snarled, as Crash and Eddie jumped wildly on the ice. The thought of water below the thin crust of ice was making Diego edgy. "Cry me a river, blubber-toothed tiger," Crash taunted back. Diego wasn't the only one who was nervous. "I've got a really bad feeling about this," Ellie said. "My possum sense tingling."
Pages
Suddenly, something crashed through the ice, sending the group flying! It was two prehistoric water reptiles, Cretaceous and Maelstrom. After a few thousands on water, they had thawed out and were looking for trouble. Manny and his gang began scrambling for safety, but Cretaceous and Maelstrom were hot on their tails. They snapped their powerful jaws through the ice just inches from the friends. After several close calls, the herd was able to shake Cretaceous and Maelstrom. But Manny had a sinking feeling this wasn't the last they'd see of the nasty pair.
Pages
Sam and Jean heard about the burglary in Madrid. They took the Le Maximum to Spain. Once they arrived at the Prado Museum, Sam noticed the Muppet Show poster. "Those weirdos, the Muppets, were performing next to the crime scene in Berlin. And here they are, performing right next to the crime scene in Madrid! You know what that means." "Yes, they're suspects!" Jean cried.
They went to the train station and flashed their badges at the Muppets. They took them to the police station for interrogation. "Come on. Let's go over the files again." Sam said. But the Muppets left Madrid and en route to Dublin.
Pages
At the Gulag, Kermit was trying several times to escape. But Nadya thwarted him every time he tried to escape. He later discovered that his friends are on the newspaper. "We're in the middle of the tour. We're a family." said Kermit. Nadya grinned. "No one believes in family in a Gulag, frog. People are only ever out for themselves." Since was Kermit was stuck in prison forever, Nadya explained that they have the Gulag Annual Revue show coming up. Kermit had to rehearse–or he gets put up on the Wall.
Pages
As the group journeyed on, Crash and Eddie amused themselves by chasing each through some woods. Not wanting to miss out on the possum fun, Ellie chased after her brothers. She quickly got stuck under a fallen tree. Manny's frustration with Ellie had reached its peak. How could he think she was a possum? He marched over to her. "Don't you think that picking them up like this would be easier?" Manny said, tossing the tree aside swiftly with his trunk. But Ellie didn't answer. Something had come over her. She stood up and started walking. Manny followed. When Ellie came to a huge meadow, she stopped. A memory washed over her–a memory of herself as a baby, lost and alone. She was curled up under a tree, crying, when a mother possum and her two babies appeared. The possum mom had adopted her and taken care of her. But that didn't make her a possum. Manny was right. She was a mammoth. "I know this place," Ellie said. "A mammoth never forgets," Manny whispered.
Pages
During the rehearsals, Kermit told the prisoners that we're holding auditions tomorrow. "If any of you have a problem with that, then my door is always open!" yelled Kermit. Nadya thanked him. "This is what we've all been waiting to hear."
Pages
Exhausted from their travels, the group found a place to camp for the night and drifted off to sleep. But before long, the bed Sid was sleeping on began to move. Sid was being kidnapped! The next thing he knew, Sid was staring at an entire village of mini-sloths. They fell to their knees and began to bow down to Sid. Then one of them led Sid to a giant sculpture that looked just like him and handed him two rocks. "Fire-god! Rocks!" the mini-sloth commanded. Confused, Sid rubbed the rocks, sending out sparks that quickly turned into flames and raced up the wooden statue. The hordes of mini-sloths cheered wildly!
Pages
But things soon turned ugly. Sid learned that the mini-sloths knew about the melting ice, too, and they had made their own plan to stop it–sacrificing the Fire-god. And that meant Sid! Sid suddenly found himself bound by ropes and dangling over a fiery tar pit. "Sacrifice the Fire-god!" the mini-sloths cried, launching Sid into the pit. Lucky for Sid, no sooner was he hurled into the tar pit than the ropes wrapped around him snapped him back up. Then he went down again, then up again, this time covered in tar and dinosaur bones and looking like a monster. The amphibians screamed and scattered as the "Sid-o-saur" landed on top of the giant statue.
Pages
That night outside Periwinkle's house, after Tinker Bell built a campfire to stay warm, Tink had a thought. "I made it warmer over here," he said. "Maybe I could make it colder over there." Tink wanted her sister to be able to visit her on the warm side of Pixie Hollow.
Suddenly, the snow floor crumbled beneath her and Peri. A lynx brought them to safety. Dewey told the girls that now it was really time for Tink to go back home.
Pages
The sisters realized that they might never see other again. Tinker Bell had to come up with a plan. When the three fairies reached the border, Tinker Bell broke into fake sobs. "I can't watch!" Dewey cried. "Meet me here tomorrow. There's something I need you to bring," Tink whispered to Peri.
Pages
A little while later, Tinker Bell arrived back on the warm side of Pixie Hollow. She asked her friends, Clank (Jeff Bennett, 51) and Bobble (Rob Paulsen, 57) for help. They were hard at work when a few of her friends stopped by. Clank had told them about Tink's newfound sister, and everyone couldn't wait to find out more about her!
Pages
Olaf led Anna and Kristoff to Elsa's palace. "Now that's ice!" marveled Kristoff. Anna told Kristoff and the others to wait outside. "The last time I introduced her to a guy, she froze everything," said Anna.
Tinker Bell arrived at the border with Bobble and Clank, who were pulling a strange-looking contraption. It was a snowmaker! Periwinkle and her friends gasped in surprise. "How does it work?" Peri asked.
Pages
A few seconds later, the snowmaker started to grate a block of ice that Slush (Ben Diskin, 31), Peri's glacier dude fairy had brought and turn it into snow. Peri was delighted!
Pages
Meanwhile, the other Muppets have been doing whatever they want, but they wonder if whatever they want is what they really want. "Maybe it's just me," says Gonzo, "but is doing whatever we want not as fun as we thought it would be?" Rowlf the Dog (Bill Barretta, 49) nods. "You know when you're a kid and you want a cool dad and then you hang out with your friend's cool dad and it is weird and then you miss your normal dad who made all the rules?" he asks.
"Yeah," says Scooter. "Does anyone else feel like maybe Kermit's acting differently on this tour?" Piggy snorts. "I don't know what you're talking about. Kermie has never paid more attention to me." "That's kind of our point," says Scooter.
Pages
Before the show in Dublin, Fozzie Bear (Eric Jacobson, 42) shows an Irish newspaper to Animal and Walter. "Hey," the bear says, "wanna see something funny?" Walter looks and says, "That's Constantine, the World's Most Dangerous Frog!" Animal shouts, "Bad frog! Bad frog!" Walter gasps. "Wait... Kermit's been acting so weird lately. What if Kermit has been replaced by this Constantine guy?" he asks.
The three friends go to Kermit's dressing room and look around. Walter finds a pot of green makeup on the desk. "He must put this makeup over his mole to hide it!" he says. "Where's Kermit?" shouts Fozzie. "They must have switched places, and Kermit must be the frog they put in prison," says Walter. "Come on, guys. We've got to find Kermit!" Walter, Fozzie, and Animal set out to find Kermit.
Pages
Peri's journey through the warm seasons was filled with one amazing sight after the next. She saw a fast-moving rainbow and a field of blowing flowers. She thought everything was so beautiful! Soon, Fawn, Iridessa (Raven-Symoné, 27), Rosetta (Megan Hilty, 32), Silvermist (Lucy Liu, 44), and Vidia (Pamela Adlon, 47) got to meet the frost fairy face to face. "Everyone…this is Periwinkle, my sister!" Tinker Bell announced.
Elsa was surprised to see Anna, and was afraid of hurting her with her icy powers. "You should go, Anna," Elsa warned. "I'm too dangerous." But Anna explained that Arendelle needed her help. Elsa felt scared because she didn't know how to unfreeze the kingdom.

Anna was sure they could figure it out together, but Elsa just grew more upset. Frustrated, she cried out, "I can't!" An icy blast shot across the room and hit Anna in the chest!
Peri was continuing her tour of the warm side of Pixie Hollow when Tink noticed that Peri's wings had started to wilt. The snowmaker was running out of ice, and there wasn't enough snow to keep Peri cold.
Pages
Elsa hadn't meant to hurt Anna, and she worried she might accidentally do it again. "Get out!" she shouted, conjuring up a giant snowman (Paul Briggs, 39). The big snowman chased Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf to the edge of a cliff. They lowered themselves down, but the snowman grabbed the rope. Desperate to escape, Anna cut the line!
Pages
Luckily, a blanket of snow cushioned the fall. Everyone was safe! But something was wrong with Anna. Her hair was turning white! "What happened?" asked Kristoff. "Elsa hit me with her powers," Anna replied. Kristoff had an idea. "We need to go see my friends," he said. "They can help."
Immediately, Tink brought Peri back to the border. At that moment, Milori appeared. "Lift your wings," he told Peri. "Let the cold surround them." Suddenly, Clarion (Anjelica Huston, 62), the Queen of Pixie Hollow, arrived. She looked at Tink and her sister sadly. "This is why we do not cross the border." Milori told Tinker Bell and Periwinkle. "I'm sorry. You two may never see each other again."
Pages
As the girls went their separate ways, Milori mounted his owl and flew off–but not before he knocked the snowmaker into the stream. Instead of going over the waterfall as Milori had intended, the contraption caught on a ledge. There it remained, making a snowstorm out of the ice chunks that flowed into it!
Pages
Later that day, Clarion tried to make Tinker Bell understand why the rule about not crossing the border was so important. She told the story of two fairies who fell in love. One was from the warm seasons and one was from the Winter Woods. One of the fairies crossed the border and broke a wing–an injury for which there was no cure.
Pages
Meanwhile, Constantine and Dominic had delivered terrible news to the Muppets. "Walter, Fozzie, and Animal had quit the Muppets." "Wait. Walter quit the Muppets?" Rowlf says. "He just joined the Muppets!" "The show will be better without them." Dominic told them. "We can't let Fozzie, Walter, and Animal go without a fight." Gonzo said to Constantine. "We're better off without Walter, Fozzie, and Animal." Constantine says. Dominic cheers them up. "Come on, guys. We should be celebrating." "Remember, comrades, I can give you what you want!" Constantine replies. This night, the next plan of the heist will be stealing Colonel Blood's locket.
Pages
That night, during the show in Dublin with its guest star Saoirse Ronan (Herself, 19), Constantine and Dominic stole the locket from the Irish National Bank. While Jean and the leprechaun guards watching Ronan's ballet number, Sam knew there was something coming on at the vault.
Next, Constantine interrupts Piggy's sixth musical number with a big surprise. "Miss Piggy, I have very important question for you. Do you wish to become Mrs. Piggy or rather Mrs. The Frog?" "Oh, Kermie, yes!" she squeals. Constantine turns to the audience and announces, "We will be married in two days' time at the Tower of London!"
Pages
When Constantine puts the Muppet tour put on hold and the Muppets arrived in in London–also the location of the wedding ceremony, Piggy is happy, but she finally wonders if Kermit is acting weirdly. "This doesn't feel right–it's too easy," Piggy says to her dog, Foo Foo (Steve Whitmire, 54). Love shouldn't be easy.
Sam and Jean had been to more ridiculous crime scene and found Fozzie's rubber chicken and the Lemur token. "Could the comedian bear and the Lemur be one and the same?" Sam told Jean. Jean replies. "The comedian bear is the Lemur." They heard that he's planning on stealing the Crown Jewels at the Tower of London where the frog will plan the wedding.
Pages
Night fell as the group arrived in the realm of the trolls. Seeing Kristoff, their friend, the trolls came out of hiding. Pabbie said that Elsa had put ice in Anna's heart, which would make her freeze within a day. But there was still hope. "An act of true love can thaw a frozen heart," he explained. Olaf and Kristoff decided to take Anna back home. Surely Hans could break the spell with a true love's kiss.
Pages
Back at the kingdom, Hans had become alarmed when Anna's fjord horse returned without her. So he rallied volunteers to find her. Instead, Hans found Elsa! Elsa tried to keep Hans and the others away from her. But during the struggle, she was hit by falling ice and knocked unconscious.
Pages
During the Annual Revue show in the Gulag, Walter, Fozzie, and Animal found Kermit and told him that Constantine has taken Kermit's place and working with Dominic as an evil plan. Kermit explained how he didn't need us. "We need you more than ever, Kermit." said Walter. The newspaper truck arrived and the newspaper shows that Constantine is marrying Piggy tomorrow. "Piggy and the gang are in danger!" Kermit cried. "To London!" As Walter's idea, they use the mining number to escape!
Pages
At the camp the next morning the group awoke to find water everywhere. Soon they heard the sound of footsteps approaching. It was a sleepy-looking Sid. "Oh, hi. Hey, you'll never guess what happened to me," Sid cried. "I was kidnapped by a tribe of mini-sloths!" The wilder the details of Sid's story got–Fire-gods, burning idols, tar pits–the more suspicious his friends grew. Sid had come up with some real doozies before, but this one took the prize. "Sid, you were dreaming." Manny said, leading Sid and the rest of the group on their way. Escaping the flood was more important than listening to one of Sid's crazy stories.
Pages
"There it is," Ellie said in awe. Cresting the top of a tall hill, the group finally saw what they'd been traveling toward–the huge boat perched atop a mountain in the distance. "We made it!" Diego added. The friends celebrated with a snowball fight. Their journey was almost over. But the friends soon discovered that reaching the boat would not be easy. Whoosh! A geyser exploded a few feet from Manny and Ellie. They were surrounded! Boiling water was shooting up on all sides. Their path was blocked.
Pages
The herd looked over the vast geyser field. "There's only one way to go. Straight through," Manny said. "We'll head back and go around," Ellie decided. "If we go through this, we'll get blown to bits!" "We go forward!" Manny argued. "We go back!" Ellie yelled. Unable to agree, Manny and Ellie headed their separate ways, Manny with his herd, and Ellie with hers.
Pages
Frustrated, Manny started off through the geyser field, narrowly avoiding the boiling water. Sid and Diego tried their best to keep up, but Manny was far ahead of them. He couldn't stop thinking about his argument with Ellie. Even when the ground split open in front of him, and a wall of boiling water shot up, Manny was still in a daze. "Come on, Manny! Come on! Let's go!" Diego yelled. When Manny looked up, a stream of boiling water was heading straight toward him. Diego ran right into him, pushing him in the right direction. "That way!" he yelled.
Pages
Kristoff brought Anna to the castle. Servants whisked Anna inside. Kristoff was starting to realize that he cared deeply for Anna. But he knew she was in grave danger...and she already had a true love. The servants brought her to the library, where she found a warm fire–and Hans! Anna told him about the magic, and how his true love's kiss could break the spell.
Pages
"Oh, Anna," Hans said with a sneer. "If only someone loved you." As he doused the fire, Hans explained that he had only been pretending to love Anna in order to take over Arendelle! All that was left, he said, was to get rid of Elsa. "Summer will return, and the kingdom will be mine!" "You can't," gasped Anna as the ice slowly spread through her body.
Pages
Hans's search party had brought Elsa down from the North Mountain and imprisoned her in the castle. But while in the cell, Elsa's fears that she might hurt the kingdom had grown–and so had her magic. Finally, her powers had burst through the walls. When Hans went to the queen's cell, Elsa was gone!
Pages
Clarion, Tink, and a group of fairies arrived at the stream to find Bobble and Clank attempting to free the snowmaker–which was making a small blizzard–from the ledge. Everyone rushed to help. Finally, they succeeded in pushing the machine into the water, but snow was still showered down from the sky! "It's too late," Clarion said quietly. "The seasons have been thrown out of balance."
Pages
Kermit, Fozzie, Walter, and Animal arrived at the Tower of London. They went inside to look for Piggy. As Constantine and Dominic enter, Kermit and Fozzie went into stealth modes. After Dominic stole the Crown Jewels, he will ring the Tower bell five times and rendezvous on the roof. Kermit and Fozzie heard that Piggy will be smoked bacon and ham for breakfast and fled.
However, Jean and Sam found them, mistaking Kermit and Fozzie as Constantine and the Lemur. After Jean was on vacation mode, Sam handcuffed Kermit and Fozzie in the Le Maximum car. When the clock begins to chime, Kermit and Fozzie made their escape by using the swallowed hairpin or moving the car.
Pages
If the warm side got too cold, the Pixie Dust Tree would freeze–and there would never be any more pixie dust. Just then, Tink noticed that a flower that Periwinkle had brought to the warm side of Pixie Hollow was still blooming! She flew straight to the Winter Woods, but Tinker Bell's wings iced over and she fell. She asked why the flower was still alive. Gliss explained that frost tucks warm air inside. "We could frost the Pixie Dust Tree before the freeze hits it," Peri suggested.
Pages
When Manny, Sid, and Diego reached boat, they anxiously looked for Ellie and the possums. There were panicked mammals everywhere, but no sign of Ellie, Crash, or Eddie. To add to the chaos, a fussy bird named Gustav was acting as gatekeeper on the boat. "At this time, we are only boarding passengers with mates," he announced haughtily. "MATES?!" Sid and Diego cried. Like many of the other people and animals, the four friends were mateless. If they couldn't get on the boat, how would they escape the flood?
Pages
Piggy was in a beautiful dress, standing with the frog she agreed to marry. Piggy isn't sure what to do. Something doesn't feel right.
Then Kermit suddenly drops in, right next to the false frog! Animal, Walter, and Fozzie helped their friend make it to the wedding just in time! Piggy gets angry. "Two Kermits?!" she cries. "How can there be two Kermits?" The real Kermit chimes in, "That's not me! I'm me! He's Constantine, the World's Most Dangerous Frog!" "He's lying! I'm the real Kermit," says Constantine. This back-and-forth goes on for a while.
Pages
Finally Piggy says, "I know how to settle this. First Kermit, will you marry me?" "Yes, of course, there is a helicopter waiting..." "Second Kermit, will you marry me?" "Um, well, I'm not... It's just..." stutters Kermit. "That's my Kermie!" Piggy cries, and she hugs her frog.
The criminal finally knew that his gig was up. He wipes the makeup off his mole and reveals himself to the crowd. "That's right, Muppets! I am Constantine, the world's most dangerous frog and number one criminal! And a thousand times more frog than this Kermit person! So long, suckers!"
Pages
Meanwhile, things weren't looking much better for Ellie, Crash, and Eddie. The ground continued to rumble, and boulders had crashed down all around them, trapping them inside a cave. Ellie tried to move the boulder trapping her, but it was no use. It wouldn't budge. Then she noticed that her brothers could fit through. Then she scooped Crash and Eddie in her trunk. "You guys gotta go," she told them. She was stuck, but they could save themselves. "Ellie, don't worry, we're going for help!" Eddie cried when they were out of the cave. He and Crash dashed off.
Pages
Back at the boat, things had gotten worse. The ground was shaking violently, and the dam had given way, unleashing raging floodwaters. All the mammals were more panicked than ever. Crash and Eddie ran through the crowd, dodging people and animals along the way. "Manny!" Crash called out. "It's Ellie!" Eddie said. "She's trapped in a cave!" Crash added. Without hesitation, Manny ran through from the boat and thundered down the hill with Sid, Diego, and the possums.
Pages
And with that, Constantine grabbed Piggy and runs and hops aboard a getaway helicopter. But the Muppets aren't about to let him get away. Kermit runs and grabs hold of the helicopter, and Gonzo onto him, and Fozzie onto him, and Walter onto him, and Animal onto him, and Scooter onto him, and Rowlf onto him...and so on.
As the herd rushed across the an ice bridge, a huge wave obliterated it, scattering the group. Manny and the possums were swept away with the water, while Sid and Diego watched from an opposite ledge. The possums clung to a tree in the raging waters, while Manny swam straight for the cave. Sid jumped headfirst off the ledge to save Crash and Eddie. But he hit his head on a piece of rock and passed out. Now it was up to Diego to save Crash, Eddie, and Sid.
Pages
Diego was petrified of the water, but he knew this no time for fear: The others needed him. Psyching himself up, Diego leaped into the raging current. "Trust your instincts," he told himself, as Sid had told him once before. "Attack the water. I'm stalking the prey." Diego tiger-paddled his way to the others, flipped Sid onto his back, and grabbed the tree limb the possums were clinging to. He claw-kicked his way safely to shore.
Pages
But at the cave, things were getting worse for Ellie. She was still trapped, and the cave was now filling with water. The pocket of air at the top of the cave was growing smaller and smaller every minute. Manny grabbed a tree and jammed it into the small space. Using all his might, he pushed on the tree, trying to wedge the boulder out. It didn't budge. The water continued to rise, and Ellie had to stick her trunk through the opening in order to breathe.
Pages
Suddenly, Manny was being pulled under the water. Cretaceous and Maelstrom, the two evil water reptiles, were back. With the floodwaters unleashed on the reptiles, this was the perfect time to strike. In the water they had the advantage.
They circled Manny, attacking from all angles. Manny could see the cave with the log still jammed in the opening. He swam for it, and Cretaceous and Maelstrom followed close behind. Cretaceous and Maelstrom closed in on Manny, preparing to attack. But Manny dodged their jaws and they ran into the tree instead! The boulder fell on top of the water reptiles, pulling them into the depths. Ellie was free! But there was more trouble to come. The waters were still rising fast…
Pages
Tink and the frost fairies flew to the Pixie Dust Tree. They got right to work, but it looked as if the job would be too big for them to complete in time. Then Tink spotted Dewey, Milori, and the rest of the frost fairies flying toward them.
Meanwhile, Olaf had arrived just in time to help Anna escape from the castle. The snowman realized that Kristoff cared for Anna–which meant Kristoff's kiss could break the spell! Anna, nearly frozen, moved slowly across the fjord toward Kristoff. But then she saw something else. Hans was about to strike Elsa with his sword!
Pages
But Tink was afraid that help had come too late. The freeze had already swept across the warm seasons of Pixie Hollow and the Pixie Dust Tree. Meanwhile, on a nearby glacial wall, the hapless Scrat found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. As he was hunting down a snack, the ice wall he was on suddenly split in two, sending him scrambling. Then something strange began to happen. The forces from the split acted like a vacuum, sucking the floodwaters down like a giant bathtub drain.
With all her remaining strength, Anna threw herself in front of Elsa. Hans brought his sword down just as Anna turned to solid ice. With a resounding CLANK, the blade shattered.
Pages
Elsa spun in surprise, then threw her arms around Anna's frozen figure. "Oh, Anna," she sobbed. The fairies gathered anxiously around the Pixie Dust Well. Sunlight was streaming through the frozen branches of the tree. Ever so slowly, the frost melted. Then the pixie dust began to flow again!
Pages
All of a sudden, Tinker Bell realized that she had broken a wing when he had flown to the Winter Woods. "It's getting warmer," Tink said bravely to Peri. "You should get back to winter." As the sisters held hands and said good-bye, an explosion of light burst from the wings. Magically, Tink's wing was healed! Suddenly, Anna began to thaw! "Elsa?" whispered Anna, blinking. "An act of true love will thaw a frozen heart!" Olaf said, suddenly realizing what had happened. Anna helped her sister see that love was more powerful than fear. As Elsa's fear faded, love filled her heart and the winter snows began to melt.
Finally, Kermit, Piggy, and the Muppet chain stops Constantine from getting away! Sam and Jean handcuffs the criminal mastermind, Constantine and his sidekick, Dominic the Lemur. "Did you know this frog robbed museums in Berlin, Madrid, Dublin, and London?" Sam asks the Muppets. "All those sound familiar," Walter says, nodding. "And you caught him!" says Sam. "Congratulations, weirdos."
Pages
In no time the Valley was empty. When there had been water, there were now only shallow puddles. The huge boat was resting on the valley floor. The mammals on the boat let out a huge cheer. The threat from the flood was over. "Please exit the boat in an orderly fashion," Gustav announced, while citizens stampeded past him off the boat.
But that wasn't over yet. Nadya had arrived in London and ordered the guards to arrest Kermit for breaking her heart and making the escape from the Gulag during the annual revue. Walter and the Muppets tell her if she has to arrest Kermit, she will have to take all of them as well. "We convinced ourselves that evil frog was you because he gave us what we thought we wanted." Gonzo said. Finally, Nadya relented and turned to Kermit. "You are free to go, forever." Kermit was free. He didn't want to go back to the Gulag after all. He was the Muppet family!
Pages
As Manny, Ellie, and the rest of the friends were enjoying their reunion, they heard a loud trumpeting sound. Manny and Ellie looked up, awestruck. There in front of them was a majestic herd of mammoths. There were more mammoths, and they had found Manny and Ellie! Ellie turned to Manny. "Well, we're not the last ones anymore." "So you want to go with them?" Manny asked. "I am a mammoth. I should probably be with the mammoths. Don't you think?" Ellie said.
Pages
Ellie turned to go with the mammoth herd. Manny didn't want Ellie to go, but when he tried to tell her, he couldn't find the words. "I hope you find everything you're looking for," he stammered. They said their good-byes sadly. Ellie went off with the herd, disappointed that Manny would not be joining them. As Manny watched Ellie go, he realized it was move on with his life and he wanted Ellie to be a part of it. "Go after her," Diego encouraged him.
Pages
Manny said good-bye to his best friends, Sid and Diego, then raced off after Ellie and the other mammoths. "Ellie!" he called after her. Ellie thought she heard something, but when she turned she could see only mammoths in every direction. She left the herd to look around, but still saw nothing. Suddenly, Manny dropped dow in front of her. He was hanging by his tail like a possum! "I want us to be together," he said tenderly. The whole tree bent under his weight, about to snap. Ellie's eyes lit up, and some mammoths let out a huge trumpeting cheer.
Pages
"Well," Sid said to Diego, "it's just you and me now." "Fine," Diego replied, eyeing his lazy friend. "But I am not carry you." Oh, c'mon buddy. For old times' sakes," Sid begged. "I'll carry him," a voice boomed, as Sid was lifted off the ground. Manny was back! And Ellie, Crash, and Eddie were with him.
As the herd of mammoths faded into the horizon, Diego looked at his friend, confused. "But your herd's leaving," he said to Manny. Manny smiled at the group and replied, "We are a herd now!"
Pages
From the day on, after the fjord melted, the visiting ships sailed away and warm fairies could cross over the border into winter anytime they liked. A coat of frost kept them safe and warm. And Olaf was finally able to enjoy summer, thanks to a snow cloud that Elsa created for him! Anna gave Kristoff a new sleigh, but he wasn't anxious to leave–especially when Anna surprised him with a kiss. Friendships between warm fairies and winter fairies bloomed–all just as beautiful as Periwinkle's flower!
Elsa made an ice skating rink in the castle. Everyone had a wonderful time skating with Queen Elsa and Princess Anna. At long last, the kingdom of Arendelle was a happy place once more.
