Review: SNOW FUN
Rating: 4 out of 5

I would give this book top grades for many reasons. First, it provides the example of sibling cooperation, Adam, Gabi and Abigail use cooperation and teamwork. Second, they decide to build a snow-woman instead of the stereotypical snowman. Third, the illustrator, Milena Radeva draws adorable black children providing racial diversity in children's literature. The story is a simple one; the children each take part and describe the building process. Mom watches from the window, praises their creation and offers hot cocoa when they are finished. There are a few minor grammar and formatting issues, but the book is a gem for preschoolers and early elementary school children. It also makes a cute bedtime story when snow is in the forecast or your child is longing for it!
