Synopsis
In the old days, winter drove people indoors to a world without television or radio, and stories would be told in front of the fire as everyone gathered around. The Winter Room is set in the early 1900's, and is the story of a family listening to their Uncle David tell old blood and glory tales of their Viking ancestry as well as their recent family history. Newbery Honor (1990)

About More Than Words Inc.
More Than Words empowers youth who are in foster care, court-involved, homeless or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. MTW believes that when system-involved youth are challenged with authentic and increasing responsibilities in a business setting, and are given high expectations and a culture of support, they can and will address personal barriers to success, create concrete action plans for their lives, and become contributing members of society. More Than Words began as an online bookselling training program for youth in DCF custody in 2004 and opened its vibrant bookstore on Moody St in Waltham in 2005 and added its Starbucks coffee bar in 2008. MTW replicated its model in the South End of Boston in 2011, thereby doubling the number of youth served annually.
