Snow

Hardcover
(Beginner Books, Aug. 16, 1700)
Two kids play in the snow and tell us what they're doing in rhymes, from skiing, to making snow angels, to building an igloo. The text has the flavor of Dr. Seuss, although the actions and the cartoon characters are all down-to-earth and believable- -no wild and crazy critters or plants like you might see in a real Dr. Seuss book. The story is not at all scary, and it's a decent book about winter that beginning readers can handle.
