Review:
"There is plenty of excitement, a little danger, a quality of thinking, planning and fun which is delightful and stimulating." -"TLS"
"He makes a tale of adventure a handbook to adventure." -"Observer"
- ""Winter Holiday" is my favourite Arthur Ransome, the one into which I want to walk even now -- if only it would just snow. Its depiction of the Lake District in winter is totally compelling. You can teach yourself to skate from Ransome's descriptions of the first tentative pushes across the ice-bound tarn." --"Guardian"

Winter holidays can be just as fun as summer with the Swallows and Amazons!

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Lost in a blizzard on a frozen lake, a brother and sister, Dick and Dorothea Callum, are in great danger. It's Swallows and Amazons to the rescue (they hope) in this wintertime adventure. The Ds (Dick and Dorothea) meet the Swallows and Amazons during the winter beside the lake and they all become great friends: joining together in ice skating, learning semaphore signals, refashioning an igloo, and building an ice sled. But a misunderstanding could lead to disaster as Dick and Dorothea head off across the frozen lake to a spot they have named the "North Pole." And, Nancy, the Amazon leader, is stuck at home with mumps. Friendship and resourcefulness, dangers and rescues: Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons series has stood the test of time. More than just great stories, each one celebrates independence and initiative with a colorful, large cast of characters. Winter Holiday (originally published in 1933) is the fourth title in the Swallows and Amazons series, books for children or grownups, anyone captivated by a world of adventure, exploration, and imagination. First published: Jonathan Cape Ltd., 1933. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781567924886
