Rosalinde Bonnet.
Lamb Pablo has never seen snow before, so he sneaks out of his cozy barn to investigate. After an enjoyable day with new friends, he gets lost in the dark. Happily, Mama and Papa come to his rescue. Both the spare text and mixed-media illustrations acknowledge the anxiety of this relatable-to-preschoolers predicament, but visual humor, a muted palette, and rounded shapes offer reassurance.
