Originally written in 1947 this book is still an excellent way of showing children all the ways snow can affect people and buildings and animals. The contrast of tehw white snow withthe colorful houses and the gray landscape help emphasize how a heavy snow can transform a landscape. ( ) White Snow Bright Snow is a poetry, picture book, about the coming of winter and snow. Everyone braces themselves for snow and then endures the cold weather and inches and inches of snow. Soon comes the dripping of water and melting of the snow. In the end the sun in shining, the trees are bare, and the children wait for for the first robin to tell them spring has come. The book uses poetry to teach about winter and snow. As someone from New Orleans who plans to teach in New Orleans I would love to use this book to teach my students about poetry, but more importantly seasons, a true winter, and snow- things we do not experience often. Illustrated by Roger Duvoisin This 1948 Caldecott winner looks at the effects of a major snowstorm on the people of a town and on the farm. As the snowflakes begin the mailman puts on his galoshes, children play, a farmer feeds his stock, the policeman’s wife makes sure he does not get a chill. When winter really sets in, things look different – softer, rounder. Children make snow forts and have major snowball fights. The mailman puts on heavier clothes and high boots. The policeman succumbs to a cold. The farmer clears a path to his barn. And everyone waits for spring. At first I really liked Roger Duvoisin’s illustrations, with a grey, wintery palette, interspersed with a touch of color here and there. But over the course of the book I grew tired of the muted colors. Even when Spring arrives his palette remains dark. The message of the book was happy, but I didn’t think the illustrations matched that mood. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
