The Way Past Winter is a riveting adventure about magic, an eternal winter, and one girl's unbreakable determination to reunite her family.
Mila, her sisters, and her brother, Oskar, live in a small forest cabin, surviving in a world gripped by frost and snow.
When a mysterious man shows up on her doorstep, Mila and her family grant him shelter for the night. But in the morning, the man is gone—and he's taken Oskar with them.
• Written by award-winning and internationally recognized author Kiran Millwood Hargrave
• Inspired by European folklore
• Middle grade novel that explores deeper topics—grief, inner strength, and the unbreakable bonds of family
Determined to save their brother, Mila and her sisters set out on a mission to rescue him. But challenges await them at every turn: wolves with the speed of demons, tempestuous gold, an untrustworthy mage—and always the relentless, stinging freeze of winter.
The Way Past Winter is a classic adventure story in the vein of Phillip Pullman, Anne Ursu, and Kelly Barnhill that evokes the best of the middle grade fantasy genre.
• A beautifully written, smartly paced tale of riveting adventure with a focus on family
• Perfect for children ages 10 and up who love fantasy and magic
• You'll love this book if you love books like Greenglass House by Kate Milford, Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend, and The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill.

Quotes

  • Isahas quoted3 years ago
    thanks always to my family. To my mother, who reads every draft and answers every panicked phone call. To my father, who shows me the wild edges of the world and tells me to keep writing into them.
  • Isahas quoted3 years ago
    The boy smiled. “I knew you saw. You care, Mila, deeply, and that makes you pay attention. There are things in the world that you have to look at with more than your eyes, hear with more than your ears, touch with more than your fingers.
  • Isahas quoted3 years ago
    Stories are just another way of telling the truth. And here she was—at the heart of the story, where it mingled with truth. She decided to believe.
