The Snow Spider

It was an exceptional sensation, reading by spiderlight.

Jenny Nimmo’s award-winning children’s story The Snow Spider is celebrating its 30th anniversary. It is a tale woven with ancient folklore and magic, one that reflects the author’s love of the Welsh landscape.

When Gwyn is given five mysterious birthday gifts by his grandmother, they give him access to a new and fantastic universe; a universe that will endow Gwyn with ancient magical powers and may even help him to find his missing sister Bethan.
