Reviews
Beautiful… A perfect book for both a small child to look at and for an imaginative adult to read aloud
Irish Times
Save for some brilliantly onomatopoeic sound effects the action of this wonderfully simple tale is conveyed solely through the watercolour illustrations… The wintery landscape is atmospheric enough to make you long for a snowfall.
Time Out, Best Books for Christmas
A beautifully warm hearted story for a wintery night . . . Simple illustrations tell this story perfectly.
Julia Eccleshare, Lovereading
A lovely, festive book, perfect for reading together
The Bookbag
The book begs to be read aloud and offers wonderful opportunities for audience participation. This delightful flight of fancy conveys the true excitement of sledding with the imagined fun of befriending wildlife. A gem.
School Library Journal, Starred Review
Judge creates a story that’s both cuddly and smartly paced
Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
So clever, so spot on… Destined to be read over and over
Red Reading Hub
