Young Peter wakes up to find that snow has fallen — and he can't wait to go outside and play!  Though he's disappointed later when he finds out that he can't save a snowball in his pocket, his sadness melts when he wakes up the next morning to yet another day of snowy fun. Keats's collage-style illustrations are wonderful — especially the sharp contrast of Peter in his red snow suit (with its little pointy hood!) against the snowy landscape. Keats's classic Snowy Day beautifully captures a child's sense of wonder.

My daughter is moving to Ohio with her two young boys who have never seen snow. I read this book to them, and now they are so excited. It's a wonderful book, and the author, Ezra Jack Keats, really knows how childrens minds work. This book will more than likely be replaced a few times over the years.
