Under and Over the Snow by Jeffrey Zygmont

Under and Over the Snow by Jeffrey Zygmont

Under and Over the Snow is a warm and charming story, pleasantly illustrated, about five forest animals and their wise, friendly neighbor, the sheep farmer Grandmother Dori.

After an early snowstorm, the animals travel together to get advice about where to find food. Grandmother Dori teaches the moose, rabbit, bear, deer and porcupine that nature has already prepared them very well for winter.

Delightfully illustrated by watercolor paintings, Under and Over the Snow captivates young children with an engaging and adventurous tale. At the same time, it teaches them how some New England animals adapt to winter. Information about the forest animals was provided by wildlife biologists from the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department.
