SNOW! SNOW! SNOW! by: Lee Harper


SNOW! The perfect day for sledding (or reading this simple, but charming book). SNOW SNOW SNOW is great for younger children who are just learning to read on their own. With beautiful pictures of white snow and winter, the reader gets caught up in the story quite easily. The best aspect of this book is what the author does with the text. As the characters go down the hill, so does the text. This happens throughout the story along with increase in size of the text to explain something exciting. Because the text is a very simple black font, these small enhancements have a great effect on the way that the story is understood and the importance of this very special snow day. Ages 3-8yrs
