Walking in a Winter Wonderland

32 pp. | Holt | September, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-62779-304-9 $17.99
(4) K-3 Based on the song by Felix Bernard and Richard B. Smith. The lyrics to Peggy Lee's version ("Santa clown" instead of "Parson Brown") of the seasonal classic accompany a family as they walk through snowy woods amid woodland creatures. Unlike with Hopgood's previous lyrics-as-narrative effort, What a Wonderful World, there's slightly too much repetition here for the words to succeed without music, but the enchanting collage and digitally colored mixed-media art achieves maximum festiveness.
