M. G. Leonard, the award-winning bestselling author of the
Adventures on Trains series and Twitch, dazzles in this future
classic with a powerful message at its core. Gorgeously illustrated
in black-and-white throughout by Penny Neville-Lee this hardback is
a perfect gift for boys and girls of 8-12. At the stroke of
midnight on the dawn of December, five-year-old Finn Albedo is
found frozen in the city park standing on a pedestal of ice. His
heart is beating, he is smiling serenely, but no one can wake him.
Finn’s big sister, Bianca, suspects that the beautiful sparkling
book Finn got from the library has something to do with it, but the
book has vanished. Does the tall mysterious stranger who first
discovered Finn know more than they will admit? Each day, more
children are found frozen and Bianca realizes she’s running out
of time. Her quest to discover the truth and rescue her little
brother hurls her into a fantastical winter wonderland, full of
beauty and danger, where all is not as it seems. Can Bianca save
her brother and the other Ice Children before they are forever
lost?
