Because of Blizzard, young Teune lives in darkness during part of the winter, and her clan celebrates when she accidentally burns Blizzard's robe. In a dream, Blizzard promises her a reward in exchange for her help. With the ice-cloth he provides, Teune creates a magnificent new robe that becomes the Northern Lights. Swift and lyrical, the story is illustrated with glowing batik artwork.
