Nature Tales for Winter Nights by Nancy Campbell

A treasure trove of wintery nature tales from storytellers across the globe, bringing a little magic and wonder to every dark night.

‘From the author of our former Non-Fiction Book of the Month Fifty Words for Snow comes a luminous collection of fascinating seasonal tales that explore everything from Tove Jansson's childhood to polar bird myths’ Waterstones

‘As we travel into the coldest season and approach the shortest day of the year, this book is a perfect companion to help you while away the long wintry nights’ The Countryman

‘Winter has its own special magic, and this collection from around the world makes you want to pull on your boots and get out there.’ Saga 



‘Rich, multi-layered and deeply meaningful. … This anthology isn’t twee or cutesy – it is profound, surprising and moving. It will transport you to another place and time and bring a new, nuanced understanding of our coldest season.’ Resurgence & Ecologist
