PSHarper Growing Tree series.
Illustrated by
Candace Whitman.
This slight rhymed verse celebrates a day of winter activities. Printed on sturdy stock, the text's playful word pairs, "Wiggle wiggle / window squiggles," "Wag wag / tail zigzags," will amuse young listeners. The soft, textured illustrations depict sledding, snowman building, and finally a cozy grouping around the fire sharing cookies and warm drinks.
