PreS. Charming watercolor drawings accompany the story of two children spending a winter day both indoors and out. After waking up to a chilly house and a warm breakfast, the youngsters dash outside to have fun building a snowman, throwing snowballs, etc. Then it's time to go back inside for some hot soup for lunch. After a quick break, they burrow in the snow, then have a tea party complete with a snowman guest. Finally, it's time for dinner and bed. This amusing story features a close-knit and loving family. With lighthearted, amusing rhyme, Brennan captures the joys children find in the simplest of pleasures. The text is well paired with the quiet and cozy illustrations. This gentle tale will find an appreciative audience during winter storyhours.?Melissa Hudak, North Suburban District Library, Roscoe, IL Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.

This book seems to have been written and illustrated for my husband and I and our oldest 2 children. Every detail is as if they are speaking of and drawing our family. It touched my heart so much and I bought the books for my kids to always remember ...
