Snowy Race review


42525331. sx318

Cozy up with this wintry journey.  A girl and her father race their plow through a snowstorm!(goodreads summary)







There is a snowstorm outside but the girl and her father in this story have a very important job to do.  They have to plow their way through town to pick up someone very special at the train station.  The little girl is so excited she gets to ride in the big plow truck her dad drives.  The text was short and simple but the illustrations inside reminded me of the books I used to read.  They have a bit of a vintage feel to them and the plowing of the mounds of snow brought back memories of the big snowstorms I had when was a child.  This was a happy and cheerful story but when the girl finally picks up that someone special it gave a warm and cozy feeling  at the end.  I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-6.~
