Reviews

Booklist

“. . . combines a cheerfully illustrated paean to winter with a pinch of science. . . In addition to the fun, there are descriptions of several creatures’hibernation habits, creatively illustrated in cross sections showing the insides of underground and underwater hiding places. . . The intricate, brightly colored cut-paper-and-paint illustrations evoke the crispness of winter and are simply fun to look at.”
—Booklist

School Library Journal

“. . .an exemplary exploration of a season. . . Swan’s beautiful cut-paper artwork is colorful, crisp, and stark. . . Make room on your shelves for this fresh offering.”
—School Library Journal

Kirkus Reviews

“. . . The descriptions of the natural world are enhanced by the use of multi-layered, hand-painted, cut-paper collages. Adding visual depth to each page, they invite readers to come in for a closer look. . .”
