Young Diamond, the gentle son of a poor London coachman, lives a humble yet happy life with his family. One night, he is visited by the mysterious and beautiful North Wind, a great lady with long flowing hair who sweeps him away on strange and wonderful adventures. Sometimes she carries him to distant lands filled with beauty and peace, while other times she brings him to witness sorrow, hardship, and loss. Through it all, Diamond learns to see the world with unusual courage, faith, and kindness, even when his own family faces poverty and illness. Though others think him odd or foolish, Diamond’s pure heart, cheerful spirit, and trust in the North Wind make him a light to those around him. George MacDonald weaves a tale that is both enchanting and deeply moving, blending fairy-tale fantasy with timeless lessons of love, sacrifice, and hope.
