MORE ABOUT THE BOOK

I grew up on the snowy East coast, but my kids have never had a snow day in California. Carey lives in Maine and sees LOTS of snow. Together, we had so much fun making a book for kids who love winter no matter where they live!

School Library Journal

“A surefire choice to spice up the dreariest winter day!”

Children's Literature

“This book would be an excellent supplement to any primary math curriculum, and a great introduction to numbers and counting…a classroom favorite.”
