In the Snow


Excerpt from In the Snow–


Someone's coming

in the snow

for seeds

left high

and low-

millet, thistle,

corn dropped so.

Who is coming

in the snow?





From Booklist:

Tafuri works her visual magic,so finely
attuned to the sensibilities of young
children while challenging them to observe
the natural world through the inclusion of
animal footprints as a clue to identification.
A worthwhile addition to library story hours
as well as one-on-one reading sessions at home.




From Chicago Sun-Times:

With pristine beauty and quiet loveliness,
the first snow of winter can warm the cockles
of the coldest hearts.As this new picture book
proves–
Nancy Tafuri, equisitely captures the world of
nature. In the Snow,by Sharon Phillips Denslow
features a short rhyming text with refrain,
"Someone's coming in the snow..." to focus on
wild animals that visit a feeding place whose
bounty is restocked by a small child. With a
soft freshness,full-page watercolor paintings
display birds, bunnies,squirrels,mice and
Old Man Possum.Here's a treat to savor on a
cold winter's day.
