I love Jan Brett and I have made my daughter love her too. She even recognizes by the artwork if it’s a Jan Brett book lol. This one was a cute one. Her books are always a bit long so my daughter doesn’t want to read them by herself. But we love how they all have the Mason story happening on the pages but there’s a sneak peek on the far ends of the pages as well. My daughter really like this one and she said her favourite part was they were all together under the musk ox. 
There is a sequel called Cozy in Love but we haven’t read it yet lol we had it signed out but didn’t get to it.

I've always loved Jan Brett's illustrations, and Cozy is no different - the little hints in the side panels making it all the more fun to guess at what's to come on the next page. A sweet story about how one scared and lonely creature can become so much more for others, the importance of community, and the value of kindness, though I did wonder about certain similarities to The Giving Tree and implications about sticking to your own herd when possible.

Another fabulous Jan Brett book. I still love reading her stuff. This is a new one to me, the story came out in 2020. The setting is the cold tundra of Alaska. Cozy is a furry musk ox.

Cozy is separated from his heard and alone in the great arctic storm. Some other animals are also looking for shelter and they begin to use Cozy as a warm shelter from the storm. Each page collects a different cute white fluffy animal seeking shelter from the storm.

A simple concept, very cute animals. The borders show you the next animal on the way. The kids would have loved this book. It's not funny, but it has cute fluffy animals and that was always popular with them.

This is a nice heartwarming story - great for a hot summer day when one needs a relief from the heat.

I love the way this author draws, it is beautiful. It felt so cozy, the way story progressed in a repeating fashion, where everyone is taking care of each other. It is all just so cute and nice.
