What a great and relatable story, filled with educational tidbits about culture, places, and described with familiar and not-so-familiar words. This is a great way to teach young learners new words and their synonyms. This could be a great book to use as supplemental reading in an English or literature course. The storyline is a familiar one for anyone who's birthday falls during other holiday celebrations--often resulting in their special day getting lost, minimized or forgotten. A very enjoyable read, filled with much to learn. Highly recommended.

A Dictionary story
I enjoyed reading The Winterborn Fix. I especially liked how the author incorporated definitions of words a long with the story of the book. The problem was that Bea-Elizabella was having a birthday during the holiday season. The part that made her sad was that she felt like no one was paying attention to her until she came up with a plan. Her family agreed. She should have her moment! Merry birthday Bea-Elizabella! Great story!

Unusual story idea!
I enjoyed reading the story which highlights the author’s vivid imagination and her love of words. I especially liked the vibrant illustrations. I would have liked more details about the birthday party solution. I highly recommend this book for someone who is captivated by language and the use of words.

Beautiful Illustrations
I enjoyed the story though at times I questioned if a the age range was appropriate. The introduction of vocabulary words is a great educational tool and it’s presented in a fun way.

Enrich your vocabulary!
I liked how the birthday girl came up with a brilliant idea of celebrating her birthday and how she successfully convinced her parents to make her birthday memorable by following her plan. I never thought that winterborn children feel left out when it comes to celebrating their birthdays because most of the household members are already busy preparing for the holidays and it is not usually the perfect time to celebrate birthdays than combining the birthday celebration with Christmas or New Year. The story was an eye opener to me and it is full of interesting words with their meanings. I would recommend this book to older children (+8years and up).
