Review

Maggie and her parents are getting ready for a large approaching snowstorm. Part of the preparation is getting Bramble, Maggie's horse, ready to weather the storm. When the storm arrives, Bramble gets out of an unlatched barn door and helps Maggie's family get through their blocked door. This will be a very good book for young chapter book readers. There is great camaraderie and caring. The family carefully prepares Bramble for the storm. After the storm, neighbors help neighbors recover. Plentiful colored illustrations add interest and help tell the story. A good book to add to your young chapter book sections.

Overall Book Score: good
