From bestselling Sophie Anderson, comes a fairy-tale adventure of friendship, belonging and bravery in a winter wonderland.

When Tasha builds a snow girl, all she wants is for her to come to life. If only wishes on snow could come true...

Then Tasha meets Alyana, whose face glitters with starlight and whose eyes shine ice-blue. Soon, Tasha has a friend and together they spend nights in a winter wonderland filled with adventure and sleigh rides.

But Tasha knows that the snow has stayed too long in her village. Only, how can you welcome Spring, when your best friend is made of Winter?

A gorgeous wintry story to curl up with, with beautiful black-and-white illustrations from Melissa Castrillon throughout.

"The Snow Girl is spectacular. A truly special book of snow and winter magic with the warmest and most cheering beating heart. I can't stop thinking about it." Sibéal Pounder
