I like reading children's nonfiction books because young children are so eager to learn. This book is a good example to use when teaching about snow. It includes such information as what a snowflake looks like, why snow is useful, and what children can do to enjoy a snowfall. It's especially fun if

there is actually snow falling or on the ground when you read this book. The day I read it to my three-year-old grandson, we crafted our own paper snowflakes.

This book is good for a preschooler as it is relatively short, but packed with things to know. The artwork is very sweet. I especially love all the animals, pictured cozy and warm in the earth beneath the snow. I even learned something from this book--that the temperature in the snow is warmer than the temperature of snow sitting on a tree!
