Sweeney, Linda Booth When the Snow Falls. PICTURE BOOK. Illustrated by Jana Christy. P. Putnam's Sons (Penguin), 2017. $16.99.
Two
children have a fun adventure with their grandparents on a snowy day--traveling
through the snow, building snowmen and snow angels, and finally finishing the
night with hot cocoa in front of a fire. This is a book written in sparse verse
with beautiful and fun illustrations. The text focuses on descriptive words,
allowing the reader to somewhat experience the snowy day with the
illustrations.
Overall this is a pretty book that adults will especially enjoy
reading and its a nice one to add to a winter collection. I do not think it's
destined to be a classic, but giving it a try is not a waste of time by any
means.
