The first thing to say about this book is: what beautiful illustrations! The book is full with images from an idyllic, historic, rural family life. The story is nostalgic and wonderful about a family spending a harsh winter in their cabin.
The reader is reminded a bit of the 'Little House on the Prairie' yet this book has its own unique character. It is a simple Christmas-themed story where you can feel the love on every page. One gets the feeling that the author produced this book as a tribute to her loving parents in memory of a happy childhood.
A sweet book with beautiful heartwarming images depicting innocent familial love and hapiness both in its pictures and in the story.
