First Snow is the newest picture book from acclaimed Caldecott Honor-winning author-illustrator Peter McCarty, which extends the winning world of animal characters established in Chloe, a Kids' Indie Next List Pick and Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book, and Henry in Love, a New York Times Best Illustrated Book. It's a day of firsts for Pedro ...First snowfall. First snow angel. First taste of a snowflake. First sled run. First snowball fight! All the joy, magic, and wonder of a child's first experiences are captured in this breathtaking picture book.
"McCarty's characteristic, ever-so-delicate shading gives the faces of his roly-poly creatures substance and softnessHis sly, Dick-and-Jane prose ("It is cold," Pedro keeps saying) makes this a rewarding readaloud." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A message emphasizing the importance of trying new things is unobtrusively folded in, but most of all, readers will come away with a genuine sense of fun and the joy of family and friends. A delightful winter excursion." -- School Library Journal (starred review)
