Summary: Another great story, with a great lesson
Comment: This is another in the American Girls Short Stories series about
Kirsten Larson, a nine-year-old girl from Sweden, whose family has
moved to frontier Minnesota of 1854. This book takes place during the
same timeframe as Changes for Kirsten, after the fire in their home,
and before the father returns from logging. When the two mothers and
Lars go into town to shop, Kirsten and her younger siblings and
cousins are left alone. Trouble comes in the form of a surprise
snowstorm that leaves the children snowbound. Now it is up to Kirsten
and her cousins to be responsible, and take care of themselves and the
baby.

This is another wonderful story, with a great lesson in
responsibility. As always, the illustrations are excellent and a real
addition to the story. The final chapter includes a group of newspaper
snowstorm stories from a 1888 newspaper, and then a number of ideas on
what to do during a snow day.

For those parents interested in reading
historical fiction about Swedish immigrants, please consider reading
The Emigrants series by Vilhelm Moberg.
