Zoe's Windy Day

Zoe's Windy Day is part of a series that includes Zoe's Windy Day, Zoe's Sunny Day and Zoe's Rainy Day. Zoe is going for an outing on a windy day; she and her father go for a walk. They watch the leaves blow down the street, and they feed squirrels in the park. Her cheeks become very rosy walking against the wind on the way home. Then she and her father sit snug and cozy inside, sipping hot chocolate after a windy day of exciting activity. Famous for her plasticine illustrations, Canadian author and illustrator Barbara Reid is world renowned. Reid has won just about every Canadian award for children's authors or illustrators. She won the Governor General's Literary Award for Children's Illustration for The Party and this book was nominated for 7 awards.

Fantastic little book. My children are forever telling stories from what they see on each page. It seems to prompt them to use their imagination, as what they see differs each sitting. Also encourages creative use of plasticine! We love our Zoe and enjoy the windy journey of this one too.
