Fox and Hare were born in the spring, but the seasons are changing and they hear snow is on the way. “What is snow like?” they ask all the forest animals, and each gives a different answer (“Snow is white, like your fur.”). But their questions are soon answered when thick, fluffy flakes start to fall. SNOW! Young readers will share the magical feeling of a first snowfall as they see the two best friends marvel in nature’s beauty.
Why I like this book: Thing Called Snow is a story of a journey where a fox and rabbit are seeking snow. It’s a nice story that takes something that children might be familiar with and asks them to describe it and pushes them to think more about it.
