Alaska, the 1920s. Jack and Mabel have staked everything on a fresh start in a remote homestead, but the wilderness is a stark place, and Mabel is haunted by the baby she lost many years before. When a little girl appears mysteriously on their land, each is filled with wonder, but also foreboding: is she what she seems, and can they find room in their hearts for her?
Written with the clarity and vividness of the Russian fairy tale from which it takes its inspiration, The Snow Child is an instant classic.

Spell binding.
Loved this book, kept me gripped
Snow Girl
This book is so enchanting & so well written I felt as though as was there through every phase of the very sad, hard and happy times of Mabel, Jack & Faina's trials. Beautiful.
Snow falls very slowly
It took me an extremely long time to read this book Mainly because the lace for me was far too slow abs the descriptions of locations was far to detailed.
There was lots of magical opportunities and I felt as is discussed in this book the wind blew it away
