Grace and the Long Winter

Grace has one promise to keep: light her little lantern every night and set it in the window, so its glow can guide her father's ship home across the dark winter sea. But the nights grow long and bitterly cold, the days blur to grey, and one wild storm sets her flame flickering low. As the whole world seems to freeze and the waiting stretches on and on, Grace must find a way to keep her little light and her hope from going out...

Told in gentle, glowing rhyme that's a joy to read aloud, Grace and the Long Winter is a Norse-mythology-inspired picture book that wraps little listeners in warmth from the very first page - while gently teaching one of the most important lessons a child can learn: that real perseverance isn't about never feeling tired or afraid, it's about holding on and keeping your light burning until morning comes.

This is another adventure in the children's Tales of the North series, where every tale pairs an epic Norse legend with a timeless virtue your child will carry for life.
