The Frost's Shadow

From the Arts Incubator Winnipeg and Art Borups Corners Storytelling Clubs comes The Frost's Shadow, a gripping tale by Eva Suluk that asks: What happens when the modern world fails, and ancient fears awaken? When a powerful blizzard cuts off Saila's Arctic village, plunging it into darkness, this resourceful teen must rely on forgotten traditions to bring back the light. Her handmade seal-fat lamps are a beacon of hope, but their flickering glow accidentally awakens something ancient and hungry—a spirit tied to the melting land itself. Now, Saila must confront not only the brutal storm but also a terrifying entity that threatens to consume everything she holds dear. This chilling adventure explores themes of personal growth, resilience, and the delicate balance between humanity and nature, as Saila discovers her own courage and the enduring strength of her community. Perfect for both home and classroom reading, *The Frost's Shadow* includes a thoughtful discussion guide to encourage conversation about its important themes and connect its powerful message to global citizenship and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG #15: Life on Land.
