The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats

One snowy morning, a little boy named Peter puts on his snowsuit and steps out of his house into a winter wonderland. He is captivated by the way the snow has transformed his world, and spends the day making snow angels, building a snowman, sliding down slick mountains, and much more. By the time he comes inside, Peter thinks his adventures in the snow are over. But when he wakes up the next morning, he realizes that new snowfall has covered the earth once more!

Universal in its appeal, this story beautifully depicts a child's wonder at a new world, and the hope of capturing and keeping that wonder forever. The quiet fun and sweetness of Peter’s small adventures in the deep, deep snow is perfect for reading together on a cozy winter day.
