Lynn Plourde is the author of many acclaimed picture books, including Winter Waits, Wild Child, Pigs in the Mud in the Middle of the Rud, and Moose, of Course! She remembers many wonderful snow days growing up in Maine when the snow reached to the tops of telephone poles. Lynn still enjoys the magic of being snowbound with her husband and three children on top of the ridge where they live in Winthrop, Maine!
reS-Gr 1-An appealing succession of activities on a snowy day results in a memorable family adventure. Beginning with a small girl awakened by her mother to a winter wonderland, this unpretentious book is a series of vignettes filled with the many diversions of a snowstorm that interrupt the normal flow of daily life. Various activities take place inside and out on this momentous occasion: reading books, playing cards, sledding, shoveling, eating, and sitting in front of a roaring fire. All of the senses are satisfied in this simple tale of old-fashioned fun. Onomatopoetic wordplay reveals all the varied sounds that are part of the unforgettable storm, while the changeable day is defined by numerous adjectives: yummy, fierce, playful, bundly, shivery, snuggly, and sleepy, to name a few. Warm, clear illustrations in acrylic reveal a close, loving family of four enjoying one another's company during a special day packed with shared amusements. The large, double-spread paintings make the book ideal for group reading. The story will evoke pleasant memories in adults and heighten the seasonal enjoyment in children.
