Critic Reviews
“You can almost smell the seasonal sugar and spice in Snow in the Garden: A First Book of Christmas from Shirley Hughes. Nobody captures the joy of each season, the way the light falls and the world looks at different times of the year, or the tiny details of family life, quite as well as Hughes. This collection of Christmas-themed stories, poems, recipes and craft ideas deserves to become as well-thumbed and covered in crumbs as all of her previous books.” The Observer
“A glorious, gentle countdown to Christmas.” The Times, Children’s Book of the Week
“A seasonal collection […] accompanied by beautiful illustrations.” The Sunday Express
Everyone, no matter whether they are one or 101, should own a copy of this book to capture and then go on recapturing, year after year, the magic of Christmas. The Good Web Guide
“It sums up Christmas beautifully.” Picture Books Blogger
