our favorite winter reads

We'd been waiting for a really big snow, saving good stuff in a sack.  Finally it was a perfect snowball day.  

- Lois Ehlert (from Snowballs)


Here are a few of our favorite books to snuggle up with on a snowy afternoon.  With the exception of the talking animals in Stranger in the Woods, all of these books are based in reality.  Which is just right for 2.5 year-old Elise - too much fantasy leaves her confused and concerned!

  • Owl Moon by Jane Yolen
  • Snowballs by Lois Ehlert
  • In the Snow: Who's Been Here? by Lindsay Barrett George
  • Stranger in the Woods by Carl R. Sams II & Jean Stoick
  • The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats
  • What Can You Do in the Snow? by Anna Grossnickle Hines

What do you plan on reading this weekend?
