When the Queen goes on a trip, and sends back a photo of her feeding some penguins, the Little Princess decides she wants snow too.

PreS-K-- When Little Princess discovers that snow exists, she exclaims, "I WANT SNOW!" Unfortunately, because it is summer, she has to learn to be patient and imaginative. The large illustrations add humor to the story as her family and friends at the castle try to improvise winter conditions for her. But snow globes, rockmen, mud balls, and sand castles are no substitute for the winter wonderland that Little Princess sees on the postcard the Queen mailed to her from the South Pole. Children who are familiar with the "Little Princess" picture book series will not be surprised to learn that once she does get to play out in the snow, she quickly finds reasons to change her mind and complain about what she wanted for so long. VERDICT Children will have a laugh at the expense of Ross's moody, prone-to-tantrums toddler princess. A suitable seasonal story selection perfect for storytime and one-on-one sharing.-- Tanya Boudreau, Cold Lake Public Library, Alta.
