Frost sprites dance at the windowpane, a snow-dwelling spider grants wishes and elusive beings convey a message in this magical collection!
Journey from a Japanese blizzard to a magical Arctic village, from the snow-covered forests of Kajanaland to a waterfall in Iceland. A snow maiden soars on her sleigh to a permafrost palace and a soothsayer in a bearskin robe shares a warning with a sprinkling of white leaves.
A maiden wanders through a portal to a winter wonderland while a crone emerges from a snowstorm bearing gifts. A mythological goddess conjures the ghosts of past eras and the goddess of snow goddess brings unexpected insights.
Be swept away to enchanting snowscapes with fifteen original tales to inspire, surprise and light the way through the winter darkness.
