(3) K-3 Illustrated by Grahame Baker-Smith. Tom loves playing in the snow with his new friend, a pale boy from the mountains, but spring can't come until the boy--Winter's Child--leaves to sleep. With food and firewood running low, Tom's elderly Nana is threatened. The spare story manages to avoid preciousness, but the magically glittering winter scenes in the intricate, often surreal digital artwork are the real draw.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
