‘From the author of our former Non-Fiction Book of the Month Fifty Words for Snow comes a luminous collection of fascinating seasonal tales that explore everything from Tove Jansson's childhood to polar bird myths.’ WaterstonesA treasure trove of nature tales from storytellers across the globe, bringing a little magic and wonder to every winter night.

As the evenings draw in – a time of reckoning, rest and restoration – immerse yourself in this new seasonal anthology. Nature Tales for Winter Nights puts winter – rural, wild and urban – under the microscope and reveals its wonder.

From the late days of autumn, through deepest cold, and towards the bright hope of spring, here is a collection of familiar names and dazzling new discoveries.

Join the naturalist Linnæus travelling on horseback in Lapland, witness frost fairs on the Thames and witch-hazel harvesting in Connecticut, experience Alpine adventure, polar bird myths and courtship in the snow in classical Japan and ancient Rome. Observations from Beth Chatto’s garden and Tove Jansson’s childhood join company with artists’ private letters, lines from Anne Frank’s diary and fireside stories told by indigenous voices.

A hibernation companion, this book will transport you across time and country this winter.

This little book is a work of art.’ Horatio Clare, author of The Light in the Dark‘This stunning book made me want to pack all my woolies, candles, ample firewood and enough books for a year – and head to as northerly a location as I could find.’ Kerri ní Dochartaigh, Caught by the River ‘A delightful compendium’ The Herald‘Winter has its own special magic, and this collection from around the world makes you want to pull on your boots and get out there.’ Saga

Excellent book, but NO chapters between books in the index
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Excellent book, with a complete introduction that covers different points of view of the creation of such work of art, it can be seen that it was translated with a team of high academic preparation and knowledge on the subject. It was translated with a lot of precision, respect, professionalism and with much seriousness to the subject. The book is made with high quality and its pages are quite thick. The only mistake that I could notice and it is difficult for me not to be upset, is that they created the index and left out the chapters of each book. For me it is a gross error in comparison with other versions. It's the reason why I could not give 5 stars.

A much needed translation that turned out beautifully
Format: Hardcover
Two things make this translation of the Picatrix a must have for any fan of the work. First, it has an index, and it's a really nice index that is fairly complete. Second, the paragraphs are numbered, so we can refer to things as being mentioned in Picatrix 3.4.1, and then somebody else can go look it up and say, "Ha ha, good one." The translation seems to be really solid, too. It's a great edition.

Discover the Soul-Centered Rhythms of True Self-Care
Format: Paperback
In today's fast-paced world, it can feel nearly impossible to escape the cycles of burnout, stress, and exhaustion. Soul Care by Debra Fileta is a timely and much-needed guide for anyone longing to break free from functioning on empty and embrace a life of true, lasting fullness. As a licensed counselor, Fileta expertly blends biblical wisdom with practical insights from clinical psychology, offering readers a holistic approach to self-care that touches the mind, body, and spirit. What I found especially impactful is how Fileta draws from the life of Jesus to demonstrate six key life-giving practices that are not only restorative but also sustainable in the long term. Her ability to bridge scripture and actionable self-care methods makes this book both spiritually enriching and immediately practical. From debunking myths about self-care to addressing how neglecting your soul affects your relationships, work, and ministry, Soul Care is filled with clear, relevant strategies. Fileta’s guidance on how to proactively address burnout is invaluable, especially for those of us in helping professions or ministry roles where we often pour into others while running on empty ourselves. This book is a breath of fresh air, a reminder that self-care is not selfish but essential for serving others well. If you're looking for a biblical, well-rounded approach to personal renewal, this book is a must-read!
