November 30: It's nearly December, so how can we not end with a winter classic?

Add a CommentA classic. I've never had a group of students that didn't want to hear it twice.

There's nothing like the magic of waking up to a new snowfall! The brightly colored, clear, vintage illustrations show little boy Peter's neighborhood covered in snow. Preschoolers will identify with Peter's playful explorations outside: making snow angels, funny footprints, snowballs and so on! Lots of fun.
A wonderful story!
Is there anything better than Peter waking up and finding a world of snowy white outside his window? A lovely story of a child’s look at a new world of snow, and his wish to capture and keep it forever.
My two year old loved this book. It is short, sweet, and I love the vintage style illustrations. It's a great book to read to your children to get them into the Holiday season!
We loved this book. Who can't relate to wet socks on a snowy day and exploring all the fun things a snowy day has to offer?
Beautiful book that evokes the wonders of the big snowy world from a child's point of view.
