In keeping with the poetic title, the emphasis in this easy reader book is twofold:
* Snow * And wonder
This story is a contagious celebration of childhood, all conveyed in very few words. With some rhymes sprinkled in, too. And zero cliches. Excellent all around!
FIVE STARS to author Charles Ghigna and illustrator Julia Woolf.
I adore Charles Ghigna books and I was severely disappointed by this book. Lackluster text combines with literal pink for girls, blue for boys illustrations. Ew, just ew.
As easy readers go, this one had appealing illustrations and rhymes to assist the preschool-grade 1 level reader. Story stems from a brother and sister enjoying a wintery day in typical ways.
