Reviews:
The clear and direct narrative takes readers into the clouds to explain snow-crystal formation ... and then zooms in on the actual crystals. Sure to get young scientists outside in the cold, particularly as it helpfully includes crystal-catching instructions. Kirkus Reviews
Libraries in areas where snow falls will definitely want to add this title to their collections, but it would enhance lessons on weather anywhere. School Library Journal
