He is captivated by the way the snow has transformed his world, and spends the day making snow angels, building a snowman, sliding down slick mountains, and much more.

Scintillating Snowy Synapses. . .
"This book ironically takes me back to warm snowy memories -- creating not only a nostalgia for those first steps of curiosity into winter exploration but also childhood wonderment. The simple illustrations complement the simple text beautifully -- artfully inviting the reader to look more carefully at the colours and words only to find they hold far more complexity and profundity than imagined. It is a classic children's book to be enjoyed again and again."
— JPVS (5/5)

Praise for The Snowy Day:
“Keats made Peter’s world so inviting that it beckons us. Perhaps the busyness of daily life in the 21st century makes us appreciate Peter even more—a kid who has the luxury of a whole day to just be outside, surrounded by snow that’s begging to be enjoyed.” —The Atlantic
"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
Ezra Jack Keats (1916–1983) is the Caldecott Medal winning author of The Snowy Day, which broke ground in 1962 as one of the first picture books for young children to portray a realistic, multi-cultural urban setting. Since its initial publication, The Snowy Day has come to be regarded as both a children’s classic and one of the most important picture books ever written/illustrated. Ezra Jack Keats’ legacy lives on in the popularity of his most famous character, Peter—the star of The Snowy Day,Whistle for Willie,Peter's Chair,A Letter to Amy,Goggles, and others.
