From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 1-- Henrietta is a rodent who must learn the hard way the rigors of preparing for winter. Left alone after her mother dies, she heeds the advice of the other animals, who say she must "store up food for the winter." She digs out a cupboard and collects nuts and berries to fill it. Her first store of food is washed away in a flood; a second store she collects is eaten by "creepy, crawly creatures" who say "yum, yum!" before Henrietta chases them away. Finally, other animals help her collect yet a third time, only to eat it all in a celebration. Tired, discouraged, and full, Henrietta falls asleep, and wakes up to discover it is spring. This is a pointless, tedious story done with flat, childlike illustrations. Henrietta is portrayed as little more than a victim. If the intention is to show her as an innocent, unaware that she is supposed to hibernate, the result is clumsy. One thing is certain: this is a book most libraries can do without. --Jane Marino, White Plains Public Library,
