The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats

This book has been around for over 40 years and is still one of my favorites. This story follows Peter around (in his memorable red jacket) as he tracks through the the snow, makes snow angels, watches the big kids have a snowball fight, slides down hills and makes one last snowball to put in his pocket to save for later. The cadence of the words and the illustrations are what make this book a keeper…it is truly timeless.
