Illustrated by
Marylin Hafner.
Little Lucille hates her snowsuit and wants to dress like her older brother and sister. Readers will empathize with Lucille's difficulties in donning her suit (she mistakenly puts her boots on first and then gets stuck), but the text belabors Lucille's problem past the point of amusement, and her petulance quickly becomes annoying. However, Hafner's light, colorful drawings of the pig family are comical.
