David is waiting for the first snow of the season, and he continually asks his mother questions about it. At naptime, he has a dream about a snow so big it drifts into his house. Upon awakening, he finds that there has indeed been "big snow." Bean's superbly patterned text builds anticipation; his pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations are warm and clear.
