Stella, Queen of the Snow is the winner of the Elizabeth Mrazik-Cleaver Award.

Stella and her little brother, Sam, are spending the day playing in the snow. The forest, snowballs, snow angels, and the mysterious white stuff itself provide fuel for Sam's questions and Stella's answers as they discover the world of winter together.

Exquisite, evocative watercolours bring a snowy day alive and make this a wonderful winter story. Gently humorous, the book also captures the relationship between an older sister and her little brotherβ€”a fun yet sometimes trying responsibility. Stella and Sam explore the wonders of snow with the same magic that they bring to all their adventures.
