Snow is in the forecast and excitement
is in the air as a family anticipates a
snow day. They imagine snow high
enough to cover school buses and the
joy of sleeping late. Dreams of hot
chocolate, making snow angels and
forts, and sledding fill their heads.
Even Dad looks forward to a day off.
As the flakes begin to fall, the family
heads for bed. They know they will need
lots of sleep for all the fun things
they'll do on the snow day. But, what
happens when morning comes and they
open the curtains...? Gustavson's
vivid
oil color illustrations enhance this
story of anticipation and dreams. This
lovely book will have you wishing for a
snow day--even in July!
