Riassunto

On a wintry day these best friends have lots of fun playing outside, until they decide to build a snow-mouse. Or will it be a snow- rabbit? How will they decide?

Pip and Posy love playing in the snow, but they can’t seem to agree about what kind of snow creature they should build — Pip wants a snow-rabbit and Posy wants a snow-mouse! Oh, dear! A delightful new Pip and Posy story about learning to compromise and work together from the best-selling illustrator of The Gruffalo.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

Just the ticket for children who are developing social skills and learning what it is to be a friend.
—Kirkus Reviews

Scheffler’s chunky mixed-media paintings capture the intense emotions that often accompany young friendships, and he deftly uses humor to prevent the story from being overly didactic.
—Publishers Weekly

The story and illustrations are packed with warmth, humor, and sympathetic understanding of the little dramas of young children’s lives. Text is clear and black against boldly colored backgrounds, and the bright illustrations are filled with humorous details.
—School Library Journal
