"The Snow Spider, won the Smarties Prize and the Tir na n-Og Award, the latter being an award for the best English-language children's book with an authentic Welsh background." (Source: Wikipedia)
I am not able to provide a commentary or personal note about the book because I have not read it, unfortunately, but the summary will give you a rough idea what it's about!
Summary:
'Time to find out if you are a magician!' said Gwyn's grandmother, as she gave him five strange birthday gifts. What could they mean, the piece of seaweed, the yellow scarf, the tin whistle, the twisted metal brooch and the small broken horse?
Gwyn gives the brooch to the wind and in return is sent Arianwen, the snow spider. The spider weaves a silken web in which sits a girl he knows but cannot place.
This is the beginning of extraordinary battles against evil in worlds sparkling with snow and silver.
Pages are slightly yellowed but still in good condition.
The Snow Spider going for RM6.
