(1) K-3 "Everyone whisper," Perkins begins, setting the mood with a page patterned in quiet blues and dotted with a soft, repeated syllable--"peth peth peth"--like the flakes of snow that blanket the world. Onomatopoeic language, offbeat details, and skillfully nuanced tones of earth and sky all convey the charms of quiet observation--of looking and listening, and of whispering, like softly falling snow.
