As Maggie’s family and neighbors get ready for a big snowstorm, Maggie is making sure her horse, Bramble, has extra hay to stay warm overnight in her stall. Bramble has other ideas, however, and goes on a middle-of-the-night adventure in the storm. “The snow settled on her back, as thick as a blanket. It kept her warm.” By morning, Bramble is getting hungry and makes her way home, just in time to help in the morning-after cleanup. Snowstorm aside, this is a warm, cozy offering, the third in the Bramble and Maggie series. The engaging story and appealing illustrations make for a winning chapter book for advanced beginning readers. (Ages 4–7)
