Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!!!!

Winter doesn't officially begin until December 21, but some of that white stuff has already   fallen!
This month you'll be looking for a story, poem, article, or book with "SNOW" in the title, or in which snow plays an important part. (You cannot use the poem from the back of Reading Log #1.)

The word "Snow" appears in the titles of books of every genre. You can probably remember some picture books from your childhood, like Ezra Jack Keats' Snowy Day or maybe you had a copy of the wordless The Snowman.



A quick look at the library catalogue revealed these examples:
Snow Bound by Harry Mazer (Survival/Adventure)
Snow Walker by Catherine Fisher (Fantasy)
A Perfect Snow by Nora Martin (YA Fiction)
The Snow Pony by Alison Lester (YA Fiction)
Phantoms in the Snow by Kathleen Duble (WWII - Historical Fiction)
and don't forget Wolf Storm (on the Great Stone Face List), which is about a blizzard and avalanche!!

Here's a tune to listen to while you search:
