AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

 Cozy is a musk ox. His parents gave him the name because his coat was so soft and silky. When winter comes Cozy is separated from his family. The winter is hash and cold. Several animals come to him for help surviving the winter.

 Delightful. It teaches how we can all get together, even with all the differences we have. Cozy is kindhearted and gentle and looks out for all his friends. Jan Brett's illustrations is, as always, beautiful and detailed. It reminded me of winters in Norway, on the tundra, with snow and wind. I saw all the animals in the book at different times, except a musk ox. There is so much to look at and talk about just in the pictures in this book. I highly recommend it.
