I am 8 years old and I love Snow Baby because I love horses. I was disappointed that she was sold and that Blazing Star won all the time. But then I became happy when the little girl learned English and returned to Snow Baby with her daughter. I didn't understand a few of the words but I used my dictionary and figured out the meaning. I liked best the part where Snow Baby came back to the house with sleighbells around her neck. The illustrations were especially beautiful. Mrs. Street has written a wonderful book.

Absolutely loved the book and illustrations! Both of my children adored it and we are all looking forward to the next adventure and lesson with Snow Baby. This is a book parents and children can read over and over again without getting bored - We find something new in the writing or the paintings every time we read it! Looking forward to more great things from both Jane Street and Charlene Yandell.

For young readers with advanced reading comprehension skills

Snow Baby is an engaging story by Jane Street about a young snow-white horse who is too slow to compete in the world of racing. Instead, Snow Baby must learn to find her own place in the world, and a job filled with both hard work and immense rewards. Beautiful color illustrations by Charlene Yandell mark the thoroughly entertaining narrative, which has a text story that is significantly more detailed, complex, and extensive than the average picture book; an excellent story for young readers with advanced reading comprehension skills, who are making the transition from picturebooks to novels.
This is a beautiful story with a life lesson for ALL ages

Snow Baby is the first book written by Jane Street. It is a winner. Although aimed at children aged 7 through 12, the book provides gentle lessons for everyone. I was moved to tears by this simple but beautiful story about love between a lonely little girl and a horse. The message of the book is simply that you should be the best that you can be and you should always give love freely to others. This book is a treasure for all ages and a great gift for children, parents, and grandparents.
