Description

Glistening with winter charm, this is an exhilarating, tender story of pushing past your comfort zone and finding inspiration in art and natural beauty.

Our young narrator doesn't like itchy hats or cold wind, and she especially doesn't like going places she's never been before. But she reluctantly agrees to join her mom at an ice festival, where they watch sculptors chisel and drill until it's too cold to watch anymore. That night the girl discovers that she has lost the horse figurine she'd brought with her, and she wishes she'd never gone . . . until the next night, when they return to the festival and see what the artists have created: sparkling, glorious sculptures that feel a little like magic. One surprise in particular seems even more magical to the girl. The ice art will stay with her long, long after it has melted away.

Editorial Reviews

"In rhythmic text, Kurpiel gently demonstrates that ephemeral moments should be treasured and that venturing outside one's comfort zones can be richly rewarding. Fluid illustrations clearly convey the narrator's emotions; eye-catching blue and white hues immerse readers in the wintry atmosphere." --Kirkus Review
