Mom's Review
Who Will Make the Snow? is a stunningly beautiful picture book in chapters. Treating topics of daily life that prompt the reader toward existential questions and that shine a spotlight on the small joys, this French import delights any age. The line drawings of the moles capture the essence of the characters and underscore the power of simplicity.
The story follows twin moles Purl and Crawly as they explore the forest during their awe-filled first year of life, forming friendships, facing fears, and basking in their family's love. The titular question is only addressed in the final pages and prompts a dispute between Crawly and the owls he fears. The disagreement leads to a discussion in good faith and ultimately an understanding of a population he had feared.
This was even better than I expected! I have high expectations for everything from Elsewhere Editions at this point, and this exceeds them. If you want a sweet story about cute animals, which will hit at a more profound level, pick this.
