Excellent illustrations; the humor may be lost on young kids
8 Jan 1999
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The illistrations are delightful, with much detail. There is almost a second story line in the antics of the small black cat found on most of the pages -- very nice when reading to kids; it allows them to make up a story of their own to go along with the main story. The humor in the story line is great for grown-ups, but I'm not sure all kids would understand the punchline on the last page. It's a fun story even if the last bit has to be explained, though!

Delightful
8 May 2000
By Roz Levine
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This is a charming story of a country wife getting ready for winter while her lazy husband gives lots of instructions, but does no work. Don't worry, she gets him back in a very humorous way at the end of the book. Easy to read, nice rhyming pattern and wonderful illustrations. A fun book to be read over and over again. A favorite in our house.

Getting ready for winter
15 Sep 2001
By Elaine C. Sisson
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The illustrations are beautiful and entertaining, look for the cat in the illustrations, and the rhyme is easy to remember. My daughter loves this book. I get it out every fall to help me organize for winter, as the first cool winds start to blow out of the north.
This book is an entertaining and fun way to get ready for the dark winter months.
