What's more magical than a brilliantly white snowy day? The fairy who made it happen.

Shirley Nix: The Snow Fairy is a lyrical story about how Shirley, from her little home in the clouds, transforms winters from drab to fun by discovering her own special power. But this is no tale of stumbled-upon magic, this gorgeously illustrated book will help children of all ages to learn about the importance of persevering in the face of failure, being brave enough to confront self-doubt, and dancing for the sake of dancing.

The perfect gift for the holidays for children aged between 3-7-whether they're taking their first steps into independent reading or you're looking for a memorable rhyme that'll stay with you long after story time is over.

Shirley Nix will have young readers everywhere running to their windows at the first signs of snow in the hopes of seeing their favourite winter fairy.

This title was written by Dominic Leslie and illustrated by Katie Luke, and represents their first collaboration in the world of children's literature.
