This story portrays a child's dreamy nighttime romp through the snowy wilderness, and the intricately detailed illustrations evoke an appropriate surrealism. This edition uses the bilingual first edition's appended poem as the main text (in English only here). The poem is still self-conscious, but this is a more accessible presentation.

PS
This wordless picture book, the premise of which seems lifted from Briggs's The Snowman, portrays a child's dreamy nighttime romp through the snowy wilderness, and the intricately detailed illustrations evoke an appropriate surrealism. There's a superfluous poem in both English and Spanish included at book's end--the only justification for the misleadingly bilingual title.
