DANCING THROUGH THE SNOW - Jean Little

~ Trade Paperback

Ten-year-old Min has had a long history of foster care since she was abandoned at age three.  Now, let go by yet another foster family, Min continues to build a protective wall around herself.  Her newest caregiver sees past Min's hardened shell and tries to find a way to reach her, and does, finally, by taking in a sick, neglected dog that has escaped from a puppy mill. 

Readers will rejoice as Min opens her heart and allows herself to be a part of a loving family, to make friends and to finally stand up to the taunts of a bully, whose hurtful words have contributed to her lack of self-esteem in Jean Little's poignant novel Dancing Through the Snow.
