The latest Frozen storybook, "Kristoff's Surprise", recently released in France. It tells the story of Kristoff preparing his proposal to Anna at the end of Frozen II (spoilers for a year-old movie, I guess).
Since it usually takes Disney months to localize these things, and it has some nice art, I'll storytime it with a translation.
1/24
>One fine afternoon, Kristoff finishes loading his wagon in the utmost secrecy. He’s leaving to find a very special gift for Anna... Of course, his faithful friend Sven is ready to help him.
2/24
3/24
>"Did you remember the lanterns?" Sven asked in a voice that sounded strangely like Kristoff.
>"Of course!” responded Kristoff.
>"And the carrots?" asked the reindeer
>The young man gave him one.
4/24
>And then Olaf appeared!
>"Don’t forget your pickaxe!" he said, swinging it in his hand. “Are you going on an expedition?”
5/24
>Kristoff was really embarrassed. On the one hand, he wants to keep the secret. On the other, he didn’t want to lie to his friend.
6/24
>"Yes, to the Black Mountains", he told Olaf.
>"Have a great trip!" wished Olaf before walking away.
>Kristoff and Sven let out a sigh of relief.
7/24
>Off on their secret mission!
8/24
>After a long walk, the friends walked into an abandoned mine.
>Signs: "Black Mountain Mines/Forbidden"
9/24
>The interior was very dim. Luckily they thought to bring the lanterns! Without delay, Kristoff began to dig.
10/24
>After a moment, the young man found what he was looking for: a crystal! Sven did not appear to be convinced by his discovery.
11/24
>However, the adventure hadn’t really begun! Next step: the Valley of the Trolls. When they arrived, their family greeted them warmly.
12/24
13/24
>Then, Kristoff showed them the crystal.
>“Oh, it’s perfect!” rejoiced Bulda.
14/24
>The trolls got right to work with tiny tools. They carved the rock so it looked like a precious gem.
15/24
>Kristoff and Sven had never seen an engagment ring so beautiful!
16/24
>But they aren’t done yet, the last step: the proposal.
>"I will look Anna right in the eyes, and I’ll tell her..." explained Kristoff. "Well, I’ll know what to say when the moment comes". The young man seems hesitant.
17/24
18/24
>Bulda and Cliff, his adoptive parents, start giving him their advice. A proposal shouldn’t be taken lightly!
>"How will I know it’s the right moment?" asked Kristoff.
>"Follow your instincts", Bulda told him wisely.
19/24
>On his return to Arendelle, Kristoff wrote a list of things to do to make sure the proposal is perfect. First, getting Elsa’s approval. Nothing easier!
>Note: "Ask Elsa"
20/24
>Next, it’s time to find the perfect moment. But this is complicated… Each time he tries, it doesn’t work out.
21/24
>Just as Kristoff is beginning to despair, the right moment arrives. He gets down at Anna’s feet and offers her the ring.
>"You are the most extraordinary person I’ve ever met", he says to her, "and I love you, I love you with all my heart. Will you marry me?"
>"Yes!" she replies, overwhelmed.
22/24
23/24
>As Kristoff swept her up into his arms, he said to himself that Bulda was right. He knew when the right moment came. The young man has found his true love.

Based.
Thanks for the storytime, user!
Here's the back of the book. It's #6 in a series that's been releasing throughout this year, and there's at least 6 more going to be published in the future.
No problem.
And here's the preview cover of the next storybook in the series, "Anna's Portrait".
thanks OP, it’s a cute story
I love that the whole movie is just ruining Kristoff’s plans, and he doesn’t even comment on all the magical shit that happens
Funny how almost the entirety of F2 is reduced to a single page.

Nice.
What can you do when even Elsa ships Kristanna? I mean, look at her reaction:
