Author: Michael Morpurgo Illustrated by Michael Foreman
Ages: 5+
Michael Morpurgo's books are wonderful entertainers. So much so, that Spielberg created a classic movie adapting Morpurgo's "The War Horse". Snow tales is no exception.
This book has two stories both involving creatures of the Arctic - the Polar Bear and an Albatross family. The settings for the story spring right out of the book with Michael Foreman's cool illustrations in arctic hues and you can almost hear the soothing voice of Sir David Attenborough narrating about life in the north pole in the background, like his episodes in Natural History channel.
The stories themselves are very warm and engaging. While the Polar bear dreams the impossible during hibernation, the Albatross family face a few challenges in their brave fight for survival in the frozen north.
Snow tales... a melting composition.
