Lester L. Laminack (2007) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by Adam Gustavson

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!
