These tiny, magical creatures hold the secret to life itself. But her Mama has bequeathed Sloe six tiny animals - like creatures from a fairy tale. Years later Sloe is sent to prison school and Mama disappears. To Sloe, Mama's secret work is magic, as enchanting as Mama's tales of a bright city across the ice where the sun always shines and one day they will be free. Mama's crime teaching science, and her dedication to the hope that the lost animal species can be reborn. When Sloe was tiny, her Papa disappeared and she and her mama went to live in a prison camp in the snowy North, in a time and place when there are no more wild animals.
