<p><b><i>First snow, surprise snow:<br> Nature's sparkly magic show</i></b></p> <p><b>The award-winning celebration of preschoolers and snow is now available as a board book!</b></p> <p>For small children, snow is a wonder. It sparkles and glitters. It transforms the outside world. Every kind of snow brings its own magic. It invites snow angels, skating, fort-building, and snowballs. Even blizzard days are exciting, when routines are overturned and everyone bands together to clear the snow away. For the youngest among us, winter is magical.</p> <p>In <i>Snow Days</i>, author <b>Deborah Kerbel</b> captures that magic with nimble couplets that <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> calls "a playful celebration of wintry weather." Illustrator <b>Miki Sato</b>'s fascinating textural collage art, called "deceptively simple" by <i>Publishers Weekly</i>, looks intimately touchable. She recreates the coziness and spectacle of the season in paper, felt, and embroidery silk, creating masterpieces that invite readers to look again and again.</p> <p>With a diverse cast of children, a closing spread of five age-appropriate STEM experiments, and a sturdy Toddler Tough board book format, <i>Snow Days</i> will invite repeated reads everywhere from lap time to story time to bedtime.</p>
