A very good story this, for the lonely child, the child with few social skills and fewer friends. Katie is always out of step and out of the circle. She just doesn't have that sense of what the gang is doing and what the games are this season and is always pushed away, not invited - odd. A snow fall is the catalyst, however, that brings her a friend as she builds her snow-child and meets Jenny, who's as imaginative as she is. Nicely told, clearly illustrated, this would help children to consider friendship in a realistic but thoughtful way.
