Zusatztext "A clever and appealing picture book . . . . Brett's illustrations are done in her trademark style of highly detailed depictions of her characters and a creative use of borders. . . . The pictures! story! and subject matter make this a natural for sharing aloud." School Library Journal "In a companion book to Brett's The Mitten (1989)! a little girl decides to unpack her winter woolens from their decorated chest and hang them out on a line to air before winter comes. . . . The satisfying story celebrates the cozy hearth! home! and barnyard of picturesque Scandinavian country life! frozen in time. Brett's somber tones of pre-winter are enlivened by the intricate! colorful clothing; her fine! independent heroine is in charge of the story! and the inventive little hedgehog triumphs as well."
