"Ezra Jack Keats's classic The Snowy Day, winner of the 1963 Caldecott Medal, pays homage to the wonder and pure pleasure a child experiences when the world is blanketed in snow."―Publisher's Weekly

When Peter wakes up one winter morning, he sees it immediately. Snow! Everything outside his window is covered―and transformed―by new-fallen snow.

What a day for adventure! Just after breakfast, Peter bundles up in his puffy red snowsuit and races outside. Cars are covered! Streets are covered! There's barely a path to walk, but there's plenty of room for discovery. Peter delights in every footprint he tracks, every tree branch he rattles, every snow angel he makes. How will this young explorer end his day?

Bright colours, soft illustrations, and a simple but remarkable sense of childhood amazement make this quiet classic a rich, relatable story.
