About This Book

Young Peter steps outside after a big snowfall and spends the day exploring his snow-covered neighborhood - making tracks, knocking snow off trees, and trying to save a snowball in his pocket. Ezra Jack Keats's groundbreaking collage illustrations capture the simple, profound joy of a child experiencing a snowy day.

Why We Love This

A timeless classic that perfectly captures childhood wonder - the collage artwork is iconic, and Peter's quiet, joyful exploration of the snow resonates with every child who has ever stepped into a fresh white world.
