Synopsis

When Holly’s big brother, Connor, gets into trouble with Yule coming up, it’s clear that he’ll be marked Naughty on the great master List that Father Winter keeps. But Holly decides to fix things. Her plan is simple: find an elf, convince him to take her to the North Pole, and change the List so Connor will be Nice. Connor follows her, and the journey will test both her faith and his unbelief. They travel through a dark landscape where bears change into men and dreams drift over the ice. Their quest leads them to an Inuit village, the den of the crafty Snow Fox, a secret paradise for retired reindeer, and finally to Father Winter’s magical palace and the hidden chamber of the List. But before their quest is ended, they must learn all of Father Winter’s Rules: One, be Nice. Two, know what you really want. Three, you can only ask for yourself. And the final and most important, Rule Four: there are no guarantees.

About this title

From the Author

"Father Winter: A Yule Story" is appropriate for readers aged 9 to 99. 8-year-olds need parental guidance, as they might want to immediately start off for the Arctic. On the other hand, anybody who reaches 100 automatically becomes so wise that they no longer need to read fantasy novels, and usually spend their time on top of a mountain somewhere, waiting for people to climb up and ask them about the meaning of life.

This book is for the rest of us.

About the Author

I live in New England with my family. I’ve never traveled to the Arctic, but once or twice I've found myself wandering the halls of Father Winter's palace.
