The Snow Child by Freya LittledaleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I remember this book well from when I was a child. I was excited to see that we had it on our bookshelf. It has been handed down from family - or it may even be the one that I kept through the years. I wish I knew for sure.
My version of the book came with a cassette and I would listen to it often.
Now that I am older, and have a child of my own - I do appreciate the story more. If I were rating it - I would give it a 3 instead of 4 because of the bittersweet narrative. But - my daughter loved the book - just as I did when I was small.
She was smiling throughout the entire thing. And - asked me to read it again but to her "baby lion" that she sleeps with...just so she could hear it a second time. :o)
Tonight - she has also asked for a repeat reading of the book. This may be one she will be able to recite to me soon enough. :oD
