About the Author
Wong Herbert Yee remembers when he and his two brothers and four sisters used to walk a mile to school. One of his favorite memories is of leaving the first tracks on fresh-fallen snow (and in a mile's walk, that's a lot of tracks!). The author and illustrator of numerous books for children, including Fireman Small and Hamburger Heaven, Mr. Yee lives with his wife and daughter in Troy, Michigan (where there is plenty of snow to tramp through during the long, cold winter).
From Booklist
PreS. "Just outside my window, / There are tracks in the snow. / Who made the tracks? / Where do they go?" Keen to find out, a little girl follows the tracks throughout her rural neighborhood. Yee cleverly lets the white of the paper stand in for snow, rendering the other elements in soft colored pencils and an almost pointillistic style: ice-blue footprints; woodland flora and fauna in muted browns and grays; and the little girl herself, whose bright-red hooded coat (reminiscent of Peter's in The Snowy Day) adds cheer to the otherwise muted scenes. The singsong text, however, isn't quite as effective; certain lines ("Is that a hippopotamus?") serve the demands of the rhyme scheme more than they advance the story. Even so, this unassuming book will be enjoyed for its petite trim size, its wintry charm, and the gently humorous solution to its small mystery: the girl finally realizes that the tracks were made yesterday by someone she knows very well--herself.
