★ “It’s a work that confers classic gifts: time to look and time to wonder.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“[Ellis’s] sly humor and irreverent spirit only endear her to kids and grown-ups
alike.” —The New York Times Book Review
“Carson Ellis has created a fantastic microcosm with her usual grace and
inventiveness.” —The New York Times Book Review
★ “Ellis’s beautiful gouache paintings depict a world that is pushing against the dark
with candles and dance and song.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
★ “Newbery Medalist Cooper and Caldecott Honoree Ellis observe winter solstice,
which Northern Europeans once celebrated, by ‘singing, dancing,/ To drive the
dark away’ as one year ended and another began. In Ellis’s subtle, mythical
paintings, the sun—a large gray figure with a radiant head—slips away over
a landscape first bright and brown, then deep with snow. Lacy tree branches
darken, and candles appear on windowsills: ‘So the shortest day came,/ and the
year died.’” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
