The Snow Girl: The nail-biting thriller behind the Netflix Original Series!

Product Information

While Jack toils away on their land, Mabel’s idle time is spent remembering the child they lost and how devastating it was for her, having always yearned to be a mother. She looked directly up into the northern lights and she wondered if those cold-burning specters might not draw her breath, her very soul, out of her chest and into the stars. Well, I do believe I was wise to wait on reading this one because of the subject matter, but it is beautiful. One night after a heavy snowfall they make a snow child and adorning the figure with mittens and scarf.

The Snow Girl by Robert Giraud | Goodreads

She not only shows us how Alaska “draws kooks like flies;” she shows us her greatest secrets, how beautiful and dangerous she can be.She was outspoken and overbearing, yet she had such a warm, endearing way about her - it was like she commanded your love and respect without you realizing it. Fairy-tale or not, The Snow Child requires you to follow the rules of one: It doesn't matter why or how things happen; just that they happen. But he knelt at her feet, put his head in her lap, and they held each other and shared the sorrow of an old man and an old woman who have lost their only child. This has definitely weaved it's way into my favourites because of the strong emotions it made my feel while reading it. EOWYN IVEY delivers a very vivid story here that gives you an extremely good feel of sense of time and place of these characters homesteading in Alaska.

The Snow Girl Based on a True Story? Is Netflix’s The Snow Girl Based on a True Story?

I was hesitant in picking up this book due to the "fantasy" aspect, however, the "magic" of this story is so well done that I was able to accept it and "run with it". The Snow Child is wonderful book, so good that you as the reader, despite knowing what will inevitably happen to this extraordinary family, trusts Ivey completely to lead you to it’s inevitable end. For those who are willing to let these weird performances pass, the rest of the show offers good entertainment.What happens when a childless couple, Jack and Mable, build a child out of snow during the season's first snowfall? Our couple, Jack and Mabel, have left Pennsylvania behind, with their still born child, and invested all they have in a homestead in Wolverine River, Alaska. In fact, the story is almost self-referential in the sense that Mabel owns a book telling the story of the snow maiden, which her father (a literature professor) used to read to her: however, she learns as an adult that he only pretended to read, because the tale is in Russian!
