description: "Once, in a great town, live two poor children. They were not brother and sister, but they were just as fond of each other as if they were. He was called Kay, and she Gerda." And so begins the story of The Snow Queen, newly adapted from Hans Christian Andersen's well know tale by Naomi Lewis. As Gerda searches the forest for little Kay, and Kay sleeps at the feet of the icy-cold Snow Queen, Errol Le Cain's magnificent full colour illustrations transport us through winter and spring, along river and mountainside. Errol Le Cain is justly famous for his rich wealth of detail, and he has once again evocatively created the world of the fairy tale.
