Super Snow Day: Seek and Find
Michael Garland, Dutton, $16.99 (32p) ISBN 978-0-525-42245-7
Tommy's Aunt Jeanne leaves him rhyming notes, leading him on a snow day adventure rendered in eye-popping digital collage. Tommy views dramatic snow sculptures in the town square, rides a horse-driven sleigh through the park ("Come join the crowd./ Go for a glide./ A sleigh and some horses/ Make a nice winter ride"), meets Old Man Winter, Jack Frost (who delivers him another note), and the Abominable Snowman, and rides a bobsled. Readers can consult Aunt Jeanne's appended list of numerous snow-related objects, symbols, and other items that are hidden throughout the book. The visual surprises should keep observant readers on their toes. Ages 3–5. (Nov.)
