This book is about a young girl named Holly who one day wants to go outside and play in the snow with her cat jasper, but she cannot because she can't find her red boots. However, she is able to find everything else that is red, and when she finally fins her boots all of the snow has melted. This is a good fantasy book because Holly is naming everything that is red, and losing your shoes is very applicable to everyone.
