Review by School Library Journal Review

PreS--These titles achieve a gentle nirvana with their soft illustrations, rockabye rhymes, and an animal kingdom ruled by profound affection between critter families. The Greatest Gift features beautiful zebra family exploring the world together. The parent waxes poetic about the many ways they would give their baby the world, from the stars above to the wind in the trees. The narrative broadens, detailing the hopes and dreams every parent has for their kids, outlining the great gift of love. In Winter is Wonderful, the cozy characters are a fox family enjoying the bliss of the season. They get to revel in the beauty of snow and cold while cuddling close and safe in each other's furry embrace. All the books connect to showcase serene familial bonds. VERDICT Warm animal illustrations highlight lyrical text full of love and appreciation for our world and each other.
