Mr. Coats is freezing cold.
No matter how many heaters he turns on, how many blankets he sleeps under at night, or how many layers he wears, he can simply never get warm.
Being this cold all the time is lonely. And loneliness is a chilly feeling. Mr. Coats thinks he'll be alone in the cold forever, but he's wrong. There's someone out there just like him.
P R A I S E ★ "Bright, patterned watercolor illustrations enhance this sweet story about peeling back the layers to discover the warmth of human connection."
--Foreword (starred) "Like Sheila Moore's classic Samson Svenson's Baby, this story proves there is a lid for every pot, and even young children will warm to the story of love thawing two chilly people."
