Editorial Review:
Oh, when will it snow again? wonders the little family who lives in the snow globe. They long for a swirling snowstorm—if only someone in the big family would pick up the snow globe and give it a great big shake.
Baby would love to. She alone notices the little family. She gazes longingly at their snowy little world, but the snow globe is up way too high for her to reach. Then, when a real snowstorm sends the big children outside sledding in the moonlight, Baby finds herself alone in the parlor. . . . Will the snow globe family at last get a chance to go sledding too?
As readers follow the parallel adventures of both families, big and little, they will take special pleasure in the miniature world of the snow globe, where the skating pond is the size of a shiny quarter and a snowman is no bigger than a sugar cube.

Rating:  - A Whole New World!
A world within a snowglobe! Imaginative children will LOVE this book! Great illustrations, a simple but happy story, and a captivating concept will make this book a favorite--at Christmas and always. They'll never look at a snowglobe the same way again! Our four-year-old granddaughter was thrilled by it--and so was her grandmother.
Rating: - Kids loved it
I read this book in my son's kindergarten class and they all loved it. There is repetition which allows kids to predict, and participate.
The story is very cute and creative
I have read a lot of books in the class but this was one of the best.
I highly recommend it
Rating: - fun, snowy story
This book is great for teaching kids about perspective. I am an elementary school librarian, and I found that the children loved this story. There is an element of repetition that allows them to "guess" what's going to happen next. And, here in the South, the kids can really relate to the characters' wishes for snow!
Rating:  - liked the book but
We loved the book The Snow Globe Family by Jane O'Conner but something happened when the book was put together the pages repeated several times. I know this is no fault of the seller but they should check there items before sending them out.
Rating: - adorable
This book is very entertaining. It was an enjoyable gift for a snow-globe collector, but it would be a fun read for anyone. My 2 1/2 year old loves it too. What a cute story! You'll never look at snow globes the same again!
