Review # 1 was written on 2020-02-17 00:00:00 Shawn Van Wallendael A rather odd story and yet I do like it. Annie has been through a long winter and everything is covered in snow. She plays with her cat and one day the fat lazy cat runs away. Annie misses someone to play with so she begins making corn cakes and leaving them by the edge of the wood trying to lure something to play with. In the borders, we see Annie's cat living in a tree about to give birth. Annie, before long, has a herd of unruly beasts eating her corn cakes and wanting more. Jan's artwork is amazing here. I love the moose and the bobcat. The artwork is so beautiful as you would expect from Jan. She has such an eye for those tiny details. I just love her artwork. Never fear, Annie gets her cat back. The nephew thought the story was pretty good. He likes seeing all the interesting animals and he wants some snow like Annie had. He's ready to build a snowman. He gave this 2 stars. He said it would be cool if he could leave food and get a moose in his yard.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-02-24 00:00:00 Alicia Moreno Ramos Well... This time I actually thought Brett did a good job with illustrating cute little Annie. And, of course, the animals are great. I just thought the story was really boring and just really unbelievable. The mother cat leaves her warm home to go outside (in the snow! In a hollow tree!) to have her kittens? Bears and wolves and moose and bobcats all congregate together to eat corn cakes, with no thought of eating one another, even though the winter is harsh and food scarce? I know, I am being an annoying "grown-up" about this, but it was a really cute idea for a story it just had trouble in the execution!
