The island of Mele, famous for its eternal summer, has become a frozen world under the rule of the Snow Giant. A boy dreams that only he can break the spell and bring back the warmth; on the way, a fruit that shrinks, an unscrupulous sailor, the icy wind and a cavern await him until he reaches the giant's heart.
Work originally published as «Giant Cold» in 1984; this Italian edition (1992) features a translation by Giovanni Arduino and illustrations by Ángel Esteban and David Santaisabel.
It belongs to the «Il battello a vapore» collection (red series), aimed at young readers of fantasy and adventure.
