Description
The Shortest Day by Susan Cooper As the sun sets on the shortest day of the year, early people would gather to prepare for the long night ahead. They built fires and lit candles, bringing their own light to the darkness. This beautifully illustrated poem evokes the joy and community found in celebrating the return of the light, thankfulness, and festivity at a time of rebirth. Richly illuminated by Carson Ellis, it captures the magic behind the cycle of the seasons and our connection to generations past. A perfect addition to any home or classroom, this book welcomes Yule with its message of hope and peace.
