Critic Reviews
“Pfister (The Rainbow Fish) continues to appeal to the magpie instincts of the very young with his signature glittering foil overlays. In this tall-format book, about a mouse who finds a glowing stone that helps ward off the cold, dark days of winter, he adds an additional visual twist. At a pivotal point the remaining pages literally split in two horizontally, offering readers a choice between a "happy" and a "sad" ending”
"Milo is irresistible."-- "School Library Journal"
"Pfister fans will definitely want to add this one to their collections."-- "Publishers Weekly"
"Told with charm."-- "Parade Magazine"
