My Book Tie-Ins of the Week:
Snow by Cynthia Rylant describes snow this way it comes softly in the night like a quiet friend” or falls so “heavy [it buries] cars up to their noses. The story describes all types of snow and shares a grandmother and her granddaughter enjoying the snow by sledding, making snow angels, and more.
Snow Sensory Box
JDaniel used his chopsticks to give snowballs a haircut.
JDaniel and the next-door neighbor Nathan dusted off all the lawn furniture and railings on the deck.
Snowflake Quesadilla

How fun. I especially love the snowflake quesadilla. Have a super weekend!
Rebecca says
love the tortillas!
Anne@LittleSproutBooks says
Snowflake quesadilla is too cute! Wish we would have made one on our recent snow day. Snow doesn’t stay around long here, if we even get it. We’ll have to make day with the cottony and cheesy kind!
Michelle says
Looks like a neat book, I will have to see if our library has it. Fun tie-ins too!
LitLass says

i should check this out for broxton and i…
he is TOTALLY obsessed with snow now!
Jackie H. says
I LOVED that book!!! Except it made me a little teary when Rylant mentioned the fading snow leaving only memories and a picture with Grandma on the same page. Am I crazy or did anyone else well up? 🙂 Love the quesadilla, too.
Amy says
