{"product_id":"2940013853027","title":"Funny Big Socks","description":"In summer, all the world—of Leipsic—goes out of town, to Baden or Ems. Those who can afford it run over the Alps, to sunny Italy; but in winter—ah! then it is very different!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne is glad enough, then, to remain at home by the warm stove; or if one goes out, one must be well wrapped up in furs and cloaks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe little boys slide and skate on the frozen river; the poorer folks go about in sledges, and the rich in splendid sleighs, with white fur robes and capering horses, which have little bells tied to their manes and tails.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust such a sleigh as this stood, one bright moonlight night, before the door of the Burgomaster Von Geirstein, in the good town of Leipsic. The whole family were going in a body out of town, and now the hall door opened, and forth came the fat and stupid Burgomaster himself, with his fat and silly wife on his arm, followed by their pretty, blue-eyed daughter, Matilda, and her lover, Walther Von Blumenwald, a thriving young merchant. Her brother, Max, came last, a merry, good-natured young fellow, but who, certainly, was not very wise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMax took the driver's place; the others seated themselves within the large sleigh, and tucked the warm fur robes around them, and then, with a crack of the whip, and a loud huzzah from the young men, the sleigh glided swiftly away.","brand":"Del Williams Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47083237277936,"sku":"2940013853027","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013853027_p0.jpg?v=1763595543","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013853027","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
