You know how every snowstorm has that one perfect flake that lands on your mitten? Jin’s book captures that magic times a hundred. The snowflakes here have personalities – some sparkly, some lacy, some that probably melt faster (relatable).

Teachers love using this for winter units (bonus: pairs great with paper snowflake crafts). What’s clever is how Jin shows differences without making them feel “other” – a snowflake with a bent arm isn’t “weird,” just interesting. The ending where they all stick together? Cue the “awws.”

Pro tip: Watch for the shy snowflake’s gradual glow-up throughout the story – it’s a subtle but powerful confidence arc. Perfect for starting conversations about what makes your little one unique (prepare for answers like “my belly button!”).
