Have you ever woken up suddenly, in the middle of the night, without knowing why?

A tender and magical modern fairy tale about the bravery of a little girl and the miracle of a snowy day from Maggie O'Farrell, the best-selling and award-winning author of Hamnet and Land, brought to life in exquisite black-and-white detail by celebrated artist Julia Sarda.


Sylvie wakes one night, suddenly, without knowing why. Then she sees the most spectacular sight - a pair of wings, enormous in size, made of the softest snow-white feathers imaginable. An angel in her bedroom ... a snow angel. He tells her that he is here to look after her, for Sylvie is not as well as she seems...

- A timeless bedtime story written in Maggie's characteristically beautiful, and witty, prose.
- Exploring themes of courage, love, hope and the invisible ways children are cared for, Where Snow Angels Go speaks directly to children's anxieties while offering comfort and reassurance - making it ideal book for families to share together.
- With a beautiful, foiled jacket, and sensational black-and-white illustrations, this is a stunning book to treasure and an ideal gift for any child aged 7+ as well as any fan of Maggie O'Farrell or Julia Sarda's work.
