"This title is a simple, warmhearted introduction to Seollal, and is another example of Kim's skill at spotlighting Korean culture in an inviting and accessible way . . . Recommended for general purchase, here is a sweet story, filled with goodwill, of one girl and her family generously sharing their traditions with others." --School Library Journal
