Review
"Rosenberg's atmospheric tale is greatly enhanced by LaMarche's . . . singularly luminous artwork; mist all but lingers on the pages, and his superb use of light and shadow underscores the element of magic threading through the story."--Publishers Weekly
Book Description
Two sisters remember their dead mother's love and what she told them about the carousel horses in the park: that they sleep all winter and wake in the spring, but peeping behind the carousel canvas one cold grey day, the sisters cannot believe their eyes: the horses are alive. A picture book with luminous illustrations by Jim La Marche.
