Reviews

As crisp and delicately patterned as a snowflake, Cuyler's tale brims with rhyming words and recurring phrases with which children will gleefully chime in. Starred review, Publishers Weekly

This funny winter's tale from Cuyler features a girl who needs a boost of confidence to get past the teasing of her overwhelming, overbearing mother and sisters... Hillenbrand's comic exaggerations put both the characters and the landscape powerfully in place. – Kirkus Reviews
