From two of the UK’s best-known book makers, Robert Macfarlane and Luke Adam Hawker, comes a stunning picture book to ignite wonder in readers everywhere.
In the darkness of December,
Through the winter’s deepest snowing,
When the world is steep in camber,
And all hope is downwards-flowing –
Then’s the time to seek what’s glowing…
Written in lyrical verse, this story follows one sun-seeking child who discovers a meadow illuminated by fireflies: “fallen constellations” that dance like stars among the summer grasses, setting fears to flight. Enchanting to read aloud and exquisite to hold in the hand, each scene is rendered in spellbinding detail, showing the power of hope in a world steeped in darkness.
