Description
A modern day magical mystery adventure, The Ice Children is a heartwarming and exciting tale of a brave girl and her reindeer friend, who try to save her brother. At the stroke of midnight on the dawn of December, five-year-old Finn Albedo is found frozen on a pedestal of ice. His heart is beating, he is smiling, but no one can wake him. Finn's big sister, Bianca, suspects that the tall mysterious stranger who first discovered Finn knows more than they will admit. As Bianca's quest to discover the truth and rescue her little brother unfolds, she is hauled into a fantastical winter wonderland, full of beauty, danger and spirit animals, where all is not as it seems. Illustrated in black and white, this enchanting story is a sparkling, elegant homage to the magic of the winter season.
