When the Snow Is Deeper Than My Boots Are Tall

Description

Find a frosty window./ Watch the flakes fall./ Look! The snow is deeper than my toes are tall. With young, rhyming verse, Jean Reidy captures the joy and excitement of a big snowfall. As the snow climbs over a girl's toes, ankles, shins, and boots, there's more and more fun to be had-snowmen, sledding, snow angels, and, finally, a cup of hot cocoa by a warm fire. Godwin Books
