Bookroo's summary

Willow loves her new neighborhood, but her reclusive neighbor, Mr. Larch, remains distant. As winter approaches, Willow discovers the perfect sledding hill behind his house. Determined to share her joy, she reaches out to him. Can her warmth and kindness melt his icy demeanor in time for a magical Snow Day? Discover how one girl's spirit can transform a neighborhood and perhaps a lonely heart.

From the publisher

Mr. Larch is not a very neighborly neighbor. He never has any visitors. His gray, gloomy house never has any decorations. He avoids everyone and everyone avoids him. But now Mr. Larch has a new neighbor. Willow and her family have moved into the bright yellow house directly across the street. Willow loves her new house and neighborhood. She loves the summer and planting her garden. She loves the fall and sharing vegetables with her neighbors. And when winter arrives, she loves that, too. She can’t wait for the first snowfall because she has found the perfect hill for sledding. And it’s right behind Mr. Larch’s house. Can Willow melt his cold heart in time to enjoy a Snow Day?
