This lovable companion to Jan Brett's instant New York Times bestselling winter classic, Cozy, shows that kindness and cleverness can capture a heart.

After losing a test of strength to another musk ox in his herd, Cozy is convinced he’ll never impress his crush, Lofti.

But while he’s sulking, he learns of a bigger concern. His friend Bella, a beluga whale, is still playing in an inlet even though it’s cold enough for ice to form and block her way out.

Cozy races to the inlet and, sure enough, Bella is in trouble. Luckily, Cozy thinks of a new way to use his strong legs and tough horns that might help save Bella and win Lofti’s heart as well.

Jan Brett's newest story about this lovable character shows how helping your friends is always the right thing to do—no matter who is watching.

Cozy, a muskox, has a huge crush on a female named Lofti, but he hasn't succeeded with impressing her. His plan to challenge another male fails and leaves him on the ground. When his friend Bella, a beluga whale, gets trapped, Cozy steps up to help save the day. His heroic actions impress Lofti and she finds herself just as smitten with him as he is with her.

COZY IN LOVE is a sweet story about two muskox falling in love. Not only that, but it also shows the power of friendship and how Cozy will do anything for those he cares about. While the story feels a little flat and rushed, the illustrations are stunning with intricate details down to each piece of fur. Cozy is a brave character that children can look up to with his courage to face anything with his head held high.

Final Verdict: I would recommend this to fans of animals and I can see how it has the Valentine's Day tag with the cute romance in it. It's also great for those who enjoy stories of friendship too.
