From the publisher

From Benji Davies, the award-winning creator of Tad and The Storm Whale, comes a dazzling wintery tale about a young girl wishing for a perfect Christmas tree, and a young snowflake wishing for the perfect place to land. High, high up in the clouds, a tiny snowflake is made. Perfectly fluffy and white, she tumbles and bounces on the clouds. But then, to her dismay, she begins to fall. . . . Exquisitely written and beautifully illustrated, The Snowflake tells the separate stories of one snowflake and one little girl–both longing for their own special place in the world–that spin together into a magical ending. The snowflake and Noelle discover that wherever we go, and however we fall, in the end, we all find a way to shine. Perfect for fans of The Night Before Christmas, illustrated by Loren Long, and Dasher by Matt Tavares.
