Here Comes Jack Frost welcomes winter with a seasonal, totally holiday-free celebration of snow, frost, and all things cold and glittery. The charming cover and pictures make it hard to resist even if the story doesn’t break new ground: A boy strikes up a friendship with Jack Frost, and they romp and play through the season on sleds, skates, and skis until spring inevitably arrives. I loved author Kazuno Kohara’s first book, Ghosts in the House, and this one shares the same wonderful, three-toned lino-cut illustrations and perfectly integrated design. It’s a beautiful book to look at and pleasant to read aloud, too, although a few pages reach a little too hard to flow well. If you’re visiting a house with kids this season, take Here Comes Jack Frost as a gift that will be enjoyed for months and years to come.
- Fear Factor:
(The melancholy of winter’s passing is even mitigated by the promise of a return next year.)
- Heart:
(The story is sweet, but it’s the pictures of the boy, his dog, and Jack that make you warm to this story.)
- Attitude:
(Just none.)
- Psst: Note the wood-cutty details on the prints and the transition from blue and black to blue and white as the book moves outside. This is truly picture book art.
- If you like this: Look for the classic Snowflake Bentley, the story of another boy who loved winter in pictures of a similar style.
