This book explained exactly what it should. It explained a snowy day and you are able to tell it is about a snowy day. Has good illustrations showing different type of things to do with snow. Floor seems pretty interesting like floor tiles. The illustrations are also really good and detailed about random things that can be done when it snows. ( )

This book is about a young kid names Peter, who woke up to a day full of snow! Young Peter made snowballs, and built a snowman. Peter was so excited to put a snowball in his pocket and keep it inside, until he reached in his pocket and was sad that is wasn't there anymore. He had a dream the sun rose and melted all the now, but when he woke up, it was another snowy day.

I recommend this book to a primary classroom. It is full of fun and relatable pictures that kids would enjoy looking at while reading the book to help their imagination. I think this book is great for younger kids because it they can share a relatable joy and happiness for snow, and or a sense of fear for something they love that could go missing in a dream.
