Reviews
"The acrylic paintings are inviting and the spread of the decorated tree is glorious. The ending of this tale of friendship is most satisfying. This book is a natural for a winter celebration that is not attached to Christmas." - School Library Journal "A hip design with lots of white space and appealing illustrations using a palette of cool hues complement the snappy dialogue and clever humor . . . Each animal has its own distinct look and personality: the grumpy groundhog, the dependent, determined fox, and the cheery, polite rabbit attuned to the feelings of others. Quirky, quiet, clever. Watch for more seasonal adventures from this tantalizing trio." - Kirkus Reviews "It's hard to find a winter-setting picture book with bright lights and trimmings, packages, and a feast that doesn't mention Christmas, but Blackaby has done just that . . . Segauia's acrylic paint-and-ink illustrations emphasize blue tones, suggesting a nip in the air, and the use of red and orange add warmth. The fox's chaotic antics also heat up the pages . . . this is a good choice for a winter storytime without any religious or cultural connotations." - Booklist, "The acrylic paintings are inviting and the spread of the decorated tree is glorious.

Children will find it delightful." - School Library Journal (starred review) "It is refreshing to find such a beautiful book for this oft-forgotten day of the year. Segovia's acrylic paints and inks elevate the simple-seeming story . . . Blackaby is as tricky as her heroine . . . delivering plenty of chuckles and wordplay. Elegant." - Kirkus Reviews "A promising bedtime selection for younger children." - Publishers Weekly, "The acrylic paintings are inviting and the spread of the decorated tree is glorious.
