Fun Winter-time Books

We have been having fun with some new library books lately.
It is fun to watch my Little Guy become more and more excited about particular books as he's gotten older. AND fun to see him actually "get" little funny parts or sad parts.

Some books we are enjoying right now come off of our "W is for Winter" reading list. We haven't done many of the activities, since we've been busy moving. But we DID get a bunch of books from the book list.

Favorites:
Hello Snow! by Hope Vestergaard
This is a very cute and funny book about a little girl who wakes up and spends the day playing in the snow with her daddy. Some of those funny parts that the Little Guy loves are in this book.
The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats
This one is a classic, but for good reason. The Little Guy loves it.
Animals in Winter by Henrietta Bancroft
Explains how animals get ready for and survive winter-time. Kind of a hard concept, I think, but it has lots of animals in it.
Bear Snores On by Karma Wilson
This one is one of my favorites (and his too!) Bear is hibernating in his cave, when a bunch of other animals come in and have a party right under his nose!

Other:
These books were not on our favorite list for one reason or another. We read them once and then they went back to the library.
All You Need for A Snowman by Alice Schertle
The Biggest, Best Snowman by Margery Cuyler
Froggy Gets Dressed by Jonathan London
