Summary: The adventures of a little boy in the city on a very snowy day.
Strengths: There are such cute illustrations which provide a wide variety of colors. Some pictures are expressed in a double page spread which works because it creates a scenic scenery of winter time and this is expressed across both pages. I like how this book shows how much fun someone can have on a snow day. The texture in the snow is not just plain white, but it has musty colors embedded which makes the snow look more realistic in a way. Both the sounds and words illustrate each picture's actions.
Age level: PreK
Classroom Use: Teaches children about sounds and a fun book to read on a snowy day
