Best sisters and adventurers Maddie and Mabel are waiting. They're waiting for something that might be the best. Or it might be big, or it might be a surprise! But when it finally comes... then what?

The sisters have different ideas about what to do when it snows. And it turns out, they each need the other's help to accomplish their great ideas. It's going to take all their sisterly collaboration, humour, and bravery to figure out which idea is truly the best.

In their fifth adventure, Maddie and Mabel Ready for Snow, the sisters tap into all they've learned about creativity and cooperation, about patience and courage. Author Kari Allen and illustrator Tatjana Mai-Wyss have created a wintery world of possibility that will continue to delight young readers.
