A charming celebration of all things snow. Is it true that no two
snowflakes are ever alike? How many Christmases have actually been
white? Do the Inuit have dozens of words for snow? Can it ever be
too cold to snow? Our memories and imagination are buried in snow.
It's the weather of play, joyful abandon and mischievous games - of
snowball fights, skiing holidays and rattling down a hillside at
full speed. It's the weather of childhood - the world transformed
into a temporary playground. Even as adults, the urge to throw a
snowball is too hard to resist, those impish, childish instincts
overtaking our adult workaday selves. Packed with fascinating
insights, outdoor fun, cultural lore and traditional wisdom, The
Little Book of Snow delves into the history, science, literary and
cultural heritage that surrounds snow, frost and ice - the perfect
book for anyone who loves that feeling when you open the curtains
in the morning and find the world has turned to white...
