The Snow Thief

(3) PS Illustrated by Nicola Slater. Squirrel is puzzled by his first snow and wonders why it’s so cold. As Bird introduces him to the fun of snowball fights, ice-skating, and snowflakes, Squirrel enjoys the winter. But when his hazelnuts go missing, he suspects a "snow squirrel" is the culprit -- which turns out to be the case (sort of) with a humorous twist. The colorful digital illustrations are rendered with playful simplicity. Lively speech-bubble text invites a spirited read-aloud. Back matter includes winter weather facts.
