Snow Sounds: An Onomatopoeic Story

(2) K-3 A boy wakes up on the day before Christmas break and hears a snow plow coming down the country road: "Crash / Crush / Clank." With a spare text of mostly onomatopoeic words, Johnson has created an aural portrait of a snowy day. His sandy-textured full-spread paintings use thin lines and broad sweeps of subtly shaded color.
