Synopsis

Andy and Sandy play in the snow in this third book of the easy-to-read picture book series about friendship, from Caldecott and Newbery Honoree Tomie dePaola and Emmy Award-winning writer for the Muppets Jim Lewis.

When the first big snow of winter hits, Sandy wants to play outside--but Andy isn't so sure. After all, snow is very wet and very cold! But Sandy drags Andy along to make a snowman, go sledding, and make snow angels. Will Andy discover that snow can be fun--despite being wet and cold?

Written in simple words and short, declarative sentences, this book is perfect for little ones just learning to read on their own.
