A Beautiful Book for All Ages, February 28, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Snow Angel (Hardcover)
I came across The Snow Angel while searching for a book to read to elementary students for Read Across America week. Although it is too long to hold the attention span of a classroom full of 1st graders, I fell in love with it. The simple idealism was gorgeous. It starts out, "Rose was a little girl whose eyes were full of dreams. Most people see things just as they are. Rose saw everything blanketed in dreams of what could be. The world was much more beautiful because of it." Rose lives in a town that has become so caught up in the little hassles of everyday life that they have forgotten how to dream. It teaches a lesson that everyone should learn, and is written in a clear voice that children will relate to and adults will wish for. It is the voice of someone who has not given up on changing the world.

The Snow Angel, January 20, 2011
This review is from: The Snow Angel (Hardcover)
I have always loved this book, we get it out every year for Christmas. I love the feeling that you have when you read it!
It's about a young girl named Rosie who lives with her mother and grandfather.
In the story she makes a snow angel, that comes to life, and helps bring back the Christmas Spirit in her village.
I love the meaning of this story, and it is definitely one I recommend.
Happy Reading!!!
