an old Russian folktale

This book is a sweet story about an old couple that is sad because they cannot have a child, so they make one for themselves out of snow. She comes to life, and is a perfect child to them, and they love her. But when summer comes and the weather gets warmer, the snow child is forced to flee to colder weather. The old couple becomes sadder than ever without their little snow child. But when the first snow comes, guess who comes back with it. The illustrations are pretty and colorful. They are not completely realistic, but rather they capture the feeling of the story. They are slightly whimsical and they are playful. While pictures of the snow child tend to feature blues and white, the illustrations are also bright and bold when required. The story is told well in a simple manner that flows well. It is not choppy, and easy to read out loud. It is a very charming story, with cute pictures. Loggie-log-log-log

A heartwarming story of love and hope

This is such a wonderful story of a childless couple who finally realize their dream . It is a story of hope...... the couple is rewarded for their patience and belief in miracles. I've enjoyed reading it to my children as much as they enjoy hearing it.
