ā "The narrative is upbeat and provides opportunities for counting and talking about dressing to go outside. This combination of cheerful drawings and omniscient narrative, plus joyful dogs, will appeal to young readers. The book works for both story time or independent reading. A strong first buy."--School Library Journal (SLJ), starred review
Sally is going out in the snow!
It's a winter's day and Sally the dog is headed to the park! But first she has to put on some warm clothes: coat and boots. It's not easy to zip up a pup, but finally she's ready to sniff and snout her way through the snow. At the park she finds other pups to play with and sees people rolling snowballs to make snowdogs of all shapes and sizes! Sally sniffs them all before saying goodbye to her new friends and heading back home for a well-earned snooze.

"It is a joy to follow along on Sally's adventures. The simple language and bright and cheerful illustrations are inviting to young children, and the book encourages interaction and conversation. Children can follow along with the book, counting Sally's four boots as she puts them on, and they can think about what they need to wear to play in the snow. Highly recommended."
-- "CM: Canadian Review of Materials""Young animal lovers will enjoy the sweet story, possibly recognizing their own behavior in the ways the humans care for and love their pets. Lo's minimal yet colorful digitally created illustrations bring the tale to life. Another pleasurable doggy day with this lovable pooch."
