The Return of the Light: Twelve Tales from Around the World for the Winter Solstice As the winter solstice approaches, many cultures around the world come together to celebrate the longest night and the shortest day of the year. This special moment marks a time of transition and renewal, and is honored with stories and traditions that date back thousands of years. Storyteller Carolyn McVickar Edwards brings together twelve traditional tales from diverse cultures, including North America, China, Scandinavia, India, Africa, South America, Europe, and Polynesia. These stories, retold with wonder and magic, will renew our sense of awe at the miracle of rebirth and the power of darkness giving way to light. They offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of our world, and invite us to join in the celebrations that mark this special time of year. With its diverse and enchanting tales, The Return of the Light is a perfect companion for anyone looking to connect with the traditions and stories of the winter solstice.
