Sophie Anderson

    1. január 1976

    Sophie Anderson čerpá inšpiráciu z rodinných príbehov, vrátane rozprávania svojej prababičky a vlastnej matky, ktorá je spisovateľkou. Jej romány sa často ponárajú do sveta fantázie a mágie, kde sa prelína realita s mýtmi a legendami. Andersonová majstrovsky vytvára pútavé postavy a skúma témy identity, rodiny a sily rozprávania. Jej diela sú oslavované pre svoju imagináciu a schopnosť očariť čitateľov všetkých vekových kategórií.

      Magický príbeh o snehu a o zimnom kúzle s prvkami fantasy a nádhernými ilustráciami Keď ťa sklamú priatelia a stratíš istoty, kam ich pôjdeš hľadať? Najlepší liek je milujúca rodina, príroda a zvieratá. Kniha vznikla na motívy tradičnej ruskej rozprávky Sneguročka. Autorka napísala čarovný príbeh na pomedzí fantázie a skutočnosti o dievčatku na prahu dospievania. Taša, prenasledovaná spomienkou na nešťastný okamih života a sklamaná zo zrady kamarátov, sa z teplého juhu presťahuje aj s rodičmi k starému otcovi na ďaleký sever. Tam po prvý raz v živote uvidí sneh a postaví si z neho dievča. S ním sa každú noc skutočne-neskutočne vydáva do divokej zimnej prírody, spoznáva zvieratká, ktoré potrebujú v zime ochranu, zažíva nebezpečné situácie v horách a získava opätovnú dôveru v seba aj v priateľstvo. Snehové dievča Aliana s príchodom jari odchádza, no Taša, hoci smutná z ich rozchodu, nadobúda silu nadviazať priateľstvo s tamojšími deťmi a zase sa tešiť zo života. Očarujúci príbeh o hľadaní priateľstva a stratenej sebadôvery na pozadí tradičnej rozprávky.
