About the book

No flowers. No plants. No sunshine. When Hades carries Persephone down to the Underworld, her mother curses the Earth and everything stops growing. It is winter all year round. Persephone must return to Earth - but how can Spring return where Winter reigns?

Sally Pomme Clayton's dramatic storytelling and Virginia Lee's haunting illustrations transform one of the world's oldest myths into a classic picture-book.
