Ice Palace

Author: Robert Swindells
Illustrator: June Jackson
Publisher: Puffin

The language and landscape of this story evoke the atmosphere of Russian folk tales. Ivan’s quest to rescue his little brother from the evil Starjik calls to mind other stories such as Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen. It is a tale of mystery and illusion, on the cusp between life and death.
