(4) K-3 Illustrated by Glenna Lang. Flat, simple scenes and subdued colors illustrate this reflective poem about a young girl who encounters a spirited colt in a field. While her mother watches nearby, the girl plays with her dog and wonders about the colt as he experiences his first snowfall. Though the illustrations lack movement, they suit the quiet tone of the poem. An author's note provides insight into the text and a brief biographical sketch of Frost.
