A beautiful, atmospheric tale of winter from Joan Clark and Kady
MacDonald Denton.
Snow falls all day, all week, all month! Sammy's world is covered in
snow. As he clambers up the mountains of snow, he imagines what might
lie beneath -- a black bear and her cubs, whales and seals, even elves
mining rubies and emeralds! Finally, the weather turns warm and the snow
begins to melt . . .
This simple but deliriously evocative book is a paean to that magical
stuff that fills the winters of those who live in northern climates.
