"An absorbing, intriguing wintry modern fairy tale." Guardian

Perfect for fans of Frozen, The Snow Queen and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, this magical fairy-tale adventure follows an imprisoned princess who needs the help of a girl from the modern world to undo a wish gone wrong and save her snowy kingdom.

Every day, a lonely princess digs through the snow in search of a way to undo the terrible wish she made – one that has left her with an empty kingdom. But one day, a mysterious girl named Ela tumbles through the kingdom’s protective mist barrier. The princess is determined to bring Ela to her father, the king, as proof that her wish can be undone. Meanwhile, Ela is shocked to discover she’s stumbled upon the very Snow Princess whose picture graces the cover of the locked book that Ela’s mom won’t let her read.

Can these two brave girls from different worlds come together to set things right? This captivating adventure of courage, belonging and unlikely friendship is the perfect book to curl up with on winter nights.
