Description

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...
