A preschool girl with the suggestion of Asian facial features enjoys playing in new snow. "I laugh. / I jump. / I run. / I spin." She's wearing brightly colored winter clothes as she counts snowflakes: one, two, three, four and--oh yes--five snowflakes. Too many to count but not too many to enjoy. A brief rhyming text suits this cheerful, uncomplicated 7 1/4" x 7 1/2" book for the youngest. (Ages 18 months-3 years)

"One little snowflake falls on my nose. It makes me shiver from my head to my toes." A little girl plays outside on a cold winter day, counting each snowflake as it falls softly to the ground. Bundled in her warmest snowsuit, she savors the snow, tasting each flake as it falls on her tongue, and makes snow angels. Simple rhyming text captures the joy of a winter afternoon while teaching basic counting skills. Exuberant pastel illustrations invite young readers to join the fun.
