The Way Past Winter (Hardback)
Kiran Millwood Hargrave (author)Published: 04/10/2018

The Waterstones Children’s Book Prize-winning author returns with her most poignant, bittersweet and captivating novel to date. steeped in the landscape and literature of Scandinavia.
It was a winter they would tell tales about. A winter that arrived so sudden and sharp it stuck birds to branches, and caught the rivers in such a frost their spray froze and scattered down like clouded crystals on the stilled water. A winter that came, and never left.
Mila and her sisters live with their brother Oskar in a small forest cabin in the snow. One night, a fur-clad stranger arrives seeking shelter for himself and his men. But by the next morning, they've gone - taking Oskar with them.
Fearful for his safety, Mila and her sisters set out to bring Oskar back - even it means going north, crossing frozen wild-lands to find a way past an eternal winter.
