Where oh where do the leaves all go when winter comes and the cold winds blow? What happens to fish, flowers, field mice, and other living things when ponds freeze and the air turns blustery? Walk with a curious child and his parents as winter's first snow falls and find out....
Few words on beautiful pages examine the winter season. The question & responce format allow a child to anticipate what is going heard next; the facts of the season are age appropriate and just the right length. As a parent, I always am grateful for a story that ends with the child being tucked in - it leads so well to me tucking my child in after a reading.
Excellent story and illustrations!

I have been reading this book to my daughter for quite some time now and she loves it. So do I. I also read it to a local kindergarten class last year and they too loved it. It is simple,pretty and classic. Great book!!

I saw this book in my child's school book order and just had to have it. My son was not so convinced, but reluctantly agreed to order it. Now he loves it! The author has put into words a story that I can share with my son the world that I grew up in. The poetry and pictures just completely draw us in.
What a wonderful book!

I picked up this book because I loved the illustrations and the author lives in Bucks Co., Pa (as do I). Well, my four year old son and I just loved it. And it made for good conversation after. The author addresses in such a nice, comfortable way what happens to flowers, fish, deer, birds and caterpillars in the winter. The illustrations are just beautiful and cozy. A wonderful winter book--or any time really.
