Right here: [points to his tongue] I'm not going back inside until I do it. This should work. Premise/plot: Will our protagonist [a little boy] persevere and actually actually catch a snowflake on his tongue? Or will his many, many efforts be in vain? Will this day in the snow be a happy one? What's the perfect end to the day? My thoughts: I absolutely LOVE the illustrations. Some of the spreads capture pure JOY and HAPPINESS. It is a fun, sweet seasonal story. no reviews | add a review

A kid is set on catching a snowflake on their tongue, but it's harder than it looks! And then the snow stops...but it starts again. One last chance, one big dive - and the kid catches a snowflake...on their mitten.
Jonker's illustration style here reminds me a bit of Abby Hanlon. This is a charming winter storytime read for toddlers/preschool! ( )
