What do you do when you're missing a shoe? When you're caught in the rain? Or when your ice cream melts? Solutions for Cold Feet is a sweet and gently humorous look at practical and creative answers for all the little daily problems in one young girl's life, including her exuberant and pesky dog. Will her dog, who starts out as a problem, end up as solution?

PreS-Gr 1—The illustrator of the charming "Buddy and Earl" series applies a set of practical solutions to everyday problems. Via a cool palette and a concise text, a girl and her dog test multiple resolutions for challenges, such as a missing shoe—check in the closet, under the bed, behind the couch, and under the table, or wear a mismatched pair. Similarly, there are multiple ways to deal with getting caught in the rain, melting ice cream, a boring day, and a flyaway hat. The list of scenarios ends with cold feet, which are best resolved with a cuddly pup. The gouache cartoons and spare writing are welcome, and the humor is subdued: unusual in a field in which slapstick is more often the norm. VERDICT Perfect for writing and drawing prompts and playful imagining.—Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA
