And now for another wonderful children's book for the season of giving!
Synopsis:
Luna and her polar bear friend, Bear, discover a beautiful gold flower growing in the snow. But when the flower fades, Bear goes on a search around the world for another to bring to Luna. It's only when he returns home that the true strength of their friendship is revealed. A beautifully illustrated picture book that celebrates the joys of friendship, A FLOWER IN THE SNOW has the look and feel of an instant classic.
Review: The word gorgeous is the one that immediately comes to mind, when talking about the book! The illustrations are so lovely, that they pull you in and entrance you, before you even start reading the story! The tale is simple but speaks volumes about the gift of love, and how we share it. If there is ONE book you are buying as a gift for a young reader, THIS is the one to buy! Kiddo enjoyed just flipping the pages over and over and looking at the antics of Bear and Luna, and wanted to read it over and over. We both loved the illustrations and Bear is just too cute for words! You may want to buy a 2nd book to pull out the pictures and frame them!
