tournevis @Suet624 Still snowing here too. It's a real snowstorm for once. And my knees are about 2feet. Ish. 8y
Suet624 Unreal, right? So fun if you don't have to go anywhere. I'm sorry you have to trudge through it. (edited) 8y
tournevis @Suet624 Up to 70cm in my area since yesterday, according to the news. It's a bit less up to my knees, but still. 8y
Suet624 Because I'm so short i decided to measure my leg. My knee is at 16". The snow will be up to my crotch. ? 8y
tournevis @Suet624 I'm short, but I have strangely long legs, about 20 in, ish. My 5'9" husband and I have same length legs. 8y

So it was in the upper 70s where I live, but I miss living in a place with the occasional snow day. Being forced to stay home from work with nothing else to do but read? I'll take it. (However, I don't miss the shoveling.) Enjoy your snow day Littens!

TheNextBook I hate snow but we got a snow day today with no complaints! I needed a break and I stayed inside all day and read. 8y

This is not turning out to be a good day. Woke up an hour late, snow storm, train was late, uni servers are down, my classroom doesn't have speakers, I lost my coin purse and I'm out of Diet Coke. Yap.

CouronneDhiver Whoa... sounds like you need to hop back into bed. I hope it gets better! 8y
Redwritinghood That might be the universe telling you that you should have called in sick and stayed in bed reading. 8y
tournevis I was a good prof and showed up to class and I muddled through the lesson and the students are working. 8y

I had never read The Snow Queen. I am glad my first experience was this tome with Sanna Annukka's gorgeous illustrations.
Thanks, NetGalley for the ARC. This is definitely a book I want in my personal and classroom libraries.

HotCocoaReads I read the version with Edmund Dulac's illustrations. Those are lovely too! 8y
WanderingBookaneer @HotCocoaReads : Will seek that one and compare. 8y

"Gerda knew every flower by heart, and, plentiful though they were, she always felt that there was one missing, but which one she did not quite know."
