K-Gr 3–Following It’s Fall! comes a tribute to winter and its many celebrations. In rhyming couplets, Kurilla travels through a wintry town showing many snowy day activities. Diverse characters celebrate winter holidays like Hanukkah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa. Kurilla’s cartoon drawings depict lively scenes of fun and warmth that can be shared indoors and out, all winter long. Blue and white are the dominant colors, with a sprinkling of yellow and red to accent the pages. As in the previous book, the last page asks readers to think about what they love about winter.
VERDICT A fresh new addition perfect for reading aloud to highlight winter and its many joyful celebrations.
