This is a heartwarming picture book about a tiny snowflake that has a different dream than her friends. She only wants to go somewhere warm!

She travels distances to find a home with a flowerbox on a window sill. She sits there, enjoying the warmth inside the house and sharing her happiness with the snowdrops. And when spring arrives, she is the happiest snowflake.

The best parts of the book are the illustrations. These have a fairytale-like feeling with pictures of quaint towns, castles, Eskimos, and a picturesque home with a lovely garden. I love how the color scheme changes from the beginning to the end. The detailing is just as lovely without being too sharp or bold.

I wish the font size was better. It is as tiny as the snowflake (in the electronic version) and leaves a lot of white space.

To sum up, The Smallest Snowflake is a touching book with adorable illustrations. Grab it for the illustrations.

I received an ARC from NetGalley and NorthSouth Books and am voluntarily leaving a review.
