Sun and Moon, Ice and Snow



Sun and Moon, Ice and Snow by Jessica Day George

This is a Young Adult book that retells the fairy tale, East of the Sun, West of the Moon. It is the story of young girl who was never given a name because her mother was so disappointed that her ninth child was another daughter. Her family is willing to let her go and live with a polar bear for a year in order for the family to gain untold wealth. As this young girl tries to figure out what exactly is going on in her new "home", she discovers treachery and sorrow and tries to solve the riddle of this strange place that she must live in for the next year.
