"A gentle story of patience."-Horn Book (starred review) Caldecott
Medal-winner Kevin Henkes's award-winning and bestselling mouse,
Penny, stars in an irresistible story about anticipation,
disappointment, and a brand-new sled. Told in five short chapters,
Penny and Her Sled is perfect for reading alone, reading aloud, and
sharing together. When Penny, a sweet and curious mouse, gets a new
sled, she can't wait to use it. But there's one big problem-there's
no snow! Patiently, Penny waits and watches for the snow to appear.
She puts on her scarf and hat. She sleeps with her mittens. Maybe
if she's ready, the snow will finally come. But day after day, the
snow does not arrive. Finally, Penny decides she will use her sled
for other things-it's too wonderful not to! With a little
imagination, the sled becomes a bridge for her glass animals to
cross. It becomes a bed for her doll, Rose. It becomes a magic
carpet that takes Penny and Rose on adventures all around the
world. And as Penny waits for a snowfall that may never appear, she
learns all about the power of patience, imagination, play . . . and
spring! Told in five short chapters, and with an emphasis on family
and patience, Penny and Her Sled is the perfect choice for emergent
readers and for family sharing.
