What secret is hidden in the heart of the forest? Lila lives with her
father on a snowy island. From a young age, he has protected her from a curse
and a demon. One day when he is away for a longer period of time, Lila imagines
him already a prisoner and decides to go looking for him. She then discovers a
forest asleep under the snow, populated by enigmatic spirits and a white
wolf.
Inspired by classic Japanese fairy tales, BETWEEN SNOW AND WOLF is
a tale for young girls who seem to grow up too fast (in the eyes of their
parents). Braving the world and facing your fears are lessons that never grow
old. Mixing humor and drama in a lushly illustrated presentation, this book
embraces the influence of Hayao Miyazaki, not just in its "kawaii" cute
character design, but in the magical settings the character finds herself
in. Written by Agnes Domergue, a professional musician well known for her
published volumes of haiku, this book has the lyrical qualities of a
poem.
