Praise

The New York Times Book Review, December 8, 2008

“…visually arresting…one of the most gloriously exuberant, inventive 

displays of computer-created art that I have ever seen in a picture book.”

 

Just One More Book.com, November 22, 2008

“Hoopla, bloopers and the rantings of temperamental talent turn a lesson 

in the science of snow into a boisterous blast of behind-the-scenes TV-making lunacy — 

who knew deposition, sublimation, sectored plates and radiating dendrites could be so much fun?”

 

Kirkus Reviews, September 15, 2008

“…as the studio audience oohs and aahs, playful visuals mix the cooking show motif 

with science to great effect…Complete with a commercial break and outtakes, 

this book’s as packed with information as a good hard snowball.”
