Snow Day ReviewNothing thrills the heart of a child more than the prospect of a day home from school. So when the weatherman predicts an overnight snowfall, his words jump-start the imagination. What will we do tomorrow when we're snowed in? The mind reels at the possibilities! But as with many dreams devoutly to be wished, stark reality shows up with vastly different plans. This picture book confirms the fact that no matter how old you are, the term "snow day" just might be the most exciting and magical phrase in the English language.
Lester Laminack's story is "spot on." Adam Gustavson's colorful and realistic illustrations provide snapshots that lead readers into believing they know how the book will turn out. Gotcha! A great read-along for parents and children, and it's difficult to judge who might enjoy the story more.Snow Day OverviewWhen the television weatherman predicts a big snowfall, the narrator gleefully imagines the fun-filled possibilities of an unscheduled holiday from school.Piling under warm blankets.

No snow! As the family members pile into the car so they won t be late for school, an unexpected twist reveals who wanted the snow day most of all.Adam Gustavson s expressive illustrations comically capture the excitement of pure possibility in author Lester Laminack s thoroughly original tale.

Willow and the Snow Day Dance ReviewHmmm...could the reviewers, 'Michael' and 'Fiona' be one and the same? Both are one star reviews with very similar criticism, written in similar voice and each unhappy with the name of the book and offering alternative title suggestions. One suggests that there is no value in the book and the other suggests that there are no lessons to be learned.
My kids and I actually found terrific lessons that are perfect for families and classrooms. The book begins in the fall with the kids of this neighborhood avoiding the house where Mr Larch lives. Mr. Larch, for whatever reason, doesn't reach out to his neighbors and actually posts NO TRESPASSING signs on the steep hill behind his house. You could, as both of these "two" reviewers choose to do, assume that he is a victim bearing no responsibility for his personal actions, and suggest that he is an "agoraphobic cripple" and or has a "crippling disease". Seems to me if he can climb up to the top of that hill to hammer all those signs in the ground, he can't be much of a "cripple." Another possibility could be that Mr. Larch is just making a personal choice to be the neighborhood grouch and yell at all the kids to get off his lawn. It happens. Most of us have experienced THAT person sometime in our childhood!
In the early spring, Willow moves into this neighborhood. And in typical "Willow" style, she is undaunted by anyone's bad attitude. She reaches out to Mr. Larch, inviting him into her world where charity begins at home and castaway junk becomes garden art. She has the courage to ask for help and in return she gets the entire neighborhood involved in her many projects. When she asks for help in how to make a snow day happen, Mr. Larch's heart has been warmed, and he decides to come through in a big way! The neighborhood will never be the same!
What good lessons! What a cute book!Willow and the Snow Day Dance OverviewMr. Larch is not a very neighborly neighbor. He never has any visitors. His gray, gloomy house never has any decorations. He avoids everyone and everyone avoids him.But now Mr. Larch has a new neighbor. Willow and her family have moved into the bright yellow house directly across the street.Willow loves her new house and neighborhood. She loves the summer and planting her garden. She loves the fall and sharing vegetables with her neighbors. And when winter arrives, she loves that, too. She can't wait for the first snowfall because she has found the perfect hill for sledding. And it's right behind Mr. Larch's house.Can Willow melt his cold heart in time to enjoy a Snow Day?
