really snow snow or only heavy rain? Starting with the thrill and
excitement over the first flakes falling from the sky, we follow
three young neighbours enjoying all types of snow through the
season. From sleet and fluff snow that isn't good for anything to
angel snow, snowball snow, driveway snow (which can lead to the
best forts), tracking snow, sledding snow, snow day snow, and all
the way to the last snow which is exciting in its own way: Soon,
soon, all gone snow. We've waited for so long snow. Please, please,
no more snow. Our bikes are whispering. Beautiful verse and
evocative energetic illustrations perfectly hit all the right
exciting and cosy notes that children will savour every winter!

gusty. Everything is changing, turning. It's the middle of Fall.
