So recently a new book in the "Anna & Elsa: Sisterhood Is The Strongest Magic" was released and while I enjoyed them usually I don't go out of my way to get them as most of the storylines won't have much of a impact on the actual movie canon. But this one was a special one.

:bademoticon: As you can tell, it involves Elsa being send romantic gifts from a secret admirer. Knowing me and my love for Frozen and both Sisters you knew full well that this was going to be a very special Frozen event, made no secret in the number of my fics that involve Elsa falling inlove.

Elsa having a romantic interest and straight from Disney itself? How could I not read it? This was the story I waited for!! Finally Disney was going to tell us what it thought about Elsa and love in Frozen. No more terrible new sites with false rumors or stupid ship crazy fan girls screaming that Elsa is Jack's slave, Disney was now going to come out and say what they thought of this messy unneccesary addiction to Frozen. This is their Frozen Love Story!

So I'll get to the main event and secret of the book (SPOILERS!!) .. here's a hint from one of my fanfics

And here's a joke I made back when discussing the potential for a love interest for Elsa in Frozen 2.

If you been around as long as me you already saw it coming, if not then welcome to your first Precocious Crush story kids! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php…
Here's Elsa's secret admirer who likes to play pretend where he and Elsa save the kingdom together from dragons (take that HTTYD!) when he isn't sending love gifts to Elsa by itself into the castle.

Even Elsa joins on the kid's game! Which kinda goes a little off hand in the pretend ..

Yes, Me and some very special DA members nail it that the story would play it safe and end up with the smitten child having a crush on Elsa. A predictable plot but a really classic story that is heartwarming. When done right of course...

You almost had it Gravity Falls..

So Elsa's secret admirer is a 7 year old boy (CALLED IT!) named Fredmund (but he likes to be call Freddy ) who seriously wants to married Elsa!

He pulled a shiny pebble from his pocket. Freddy offered the pebble to Elsa and got down on one knee. "Queen Elsa, will you marry me?" he asked politely.

Wow, and to think I was being out there with my fics... Anyway it doesn't go into that touchy subject as the boy is really interested in Elsa's skills as a ice bender because he wants to enter a ice carving contest. And he wants Elsa to teach him hence the matrimony request,.. He's already practice before and one of his love gifts to Elsa was a pretty good ice sculpture of her head.

Elsa tells him that she will teach him and that they don't need to be marry for that and immediately calls him her friend. She takes him as a apprentice and watches him as he enters the contest.

He doesn't place but instead get's an honorable mention. He's still happy that he hugs Elsa.

I really love the dialogue between these two especially when Elsa encourages him to continue during the contest when poor Freddy is about to give up.

"You have powers, too," she told him

"I do?" asked Freddy, astonished.

"Yes, but your powers are different from mine. You have the power of creativity and imagination," Elsa explained.

"You're just saying that to make me feel better," Freddy said.

"No, I mean it," Elsa replied gently. "You gave me some very creative gifts. Most people think queens just like flowers and jewelry, but you gave me things that were unique. Things you made with your own hands."

"I did, didn't I?" Freddy said, remembering.

Really there's more chemistry here than there is in 100% of the Jelsa fics out there then again this is done by a professional writer. I can really believe that once Freddy comes of age and reaches 17 or older he and Elsa might get to developt a special relationship.

One thing that's very special here and that really does show a lot about Elsa's mature adult character is how she acts toward discovering that a child has a crush on her as well as having a potential suitor. NOWHERE does Elsa freaks out and does a "fangirl scream" or "runs around happily" shouting "OMG!" like some bad fanfic written by a stupid Jack Frost fan. No, Elsa immediately recognizes she has a suitor and admires the gifts calmly. While she does wonder about the mystery she doesn't turn into a reckless Nancy Drew wannabe detective snooping around falsely accussing people of being the secret suitor, That's Olaf and Anna's job . Considering that Anna is still a teenager and Olaf is an idiot :bademoticon:

Once Elsa get's to know who her secret admirer is (before we even see him we are told he's 7) She immediately decides to visit him . If this was written by a stupid hyper active fan girl Elsa's reaction would most likely be "Eeeeewwww!! a kid! gross!! Creepy!!" or a ignorant "nah it's just a kid, let's forget him" or going emo in dissapointment. But this is not written by a idiot fangirl, so Elsa stays in character and acts like a responsible adult and decides to know who Freddy really is. When she discovers him outside his house she even decides to act playful and join in on the fun by creating a ice dragon statue for Freddy's pretend game .

The key here is that Elsa takes the kid's gifts and his marriage proposal seriously. She asks him why he does the thing he does and admires his efforts . Sure he's 7 but considering that he travel an hour to get to the mountain, an hour to get back to Arendelle all while carrying a heavy ice sculpture of Elsa's head and being able to sneak into the palace and leave the gifts and all done in the EARLY HOURS OF THE MORNING (Anna get's up early to catch him) this kid really is working hard to get Elsa's attention! Be it getting teach by Elsa or actually having feelings for her, this is some serious dedication. Elsa recognizes it and treats him with love and admiration. By the end Elsa has a special place in her heart for him.

"I'll remember it, too," Elsa said fondly. "It's the day my secret admirer became my friend."

They do say that your best friend is the person you love the most. So the whole crush thing is not play out as the kid just wanted to be taught by Elsa but still get hints that Freddy does like Elsa in a special way.

"It was very nice of you to send me those gifts," she said. "What made you decide to do that?"

"Well, you're just the neatest lady around!" Freddy gushed.

He still 7 years old but he has sort of an idea what this love thing is really about and getting ship is,

"Freddy, that's very sweet, but why do you want to marry me?" Elsa asked.

"I don't know. I heard it's what you do when you like someone," Freddy answered, shrugging.

Mother will definitely approve of his son's early taste in women. What better girl to laid your eyes on than the Queen herself? Even if the age is an issue or whatever, you bet that Freddy will make a good devoted servant to Elsa, perhaps a future devoted Knight to Elsa?

BTW, not that I badly want this to be part of Frozen 2 but .. is Freddy already part of Frozen canon??

Maybe there was a reason that the camera focus on him in the beginning, because he's a future character in F2 and this book is his official introduction!! Then again maybe it's just wishful thinking and I doubt that was something the writers had planned from the beginning. But that mom does look very similar to the illustration..

With that done, many fans still had a burning question in their minds.. Would love ever arrive in Elsa's life and does she dreams of having a special prince? Well Disney has a straight answer for that ..

"Do you ever wish you had a someone special?" Anna asked.

Elsa threw an arm around Anna's shoulder. "But I do have someone special," she said. "My sister!"

Anna smiled.

Right as I believe and something that many jelsa fans refuse to believe is that Elsa is happy as she is! She has Anna and that's all that matters! After years of being separated from her she can finally love her sister without fear and that's all she ever wanted in life. If you ship Elsa then that's fine but don't act like Elsa is miserable or lonely (she is not YOU).. she is happy! She is the most wonderful person you'll ever wish to be around with . There's a reason why she's the most popular Disney princess right now.

Still even if the romance wasn't what I expected (or already expected) this has been my favorite book in the "Anna & Elsa: Sisterhood Is The Strongest Magic" series. It shows that the story is more touching when it's a ordinary boy that is trying to impress Elsa and she is the powerful one who shows her human side and humility to make people feel better as well as the reason why everyone in Arendelle loves her, no matter their age.

I know these stories are just one-shots and the characters just be for one story but please Disney make these two appear more often! They have a adorable relationship not seen since Ariel and Flounder.
