No one thinks one or two snowflakes will amount to anything. Not the man with the hat or the lady with the umbrella. Not even the television or the radio forecasters. But one boy and his dog have faith that the snow will amount to something spectacular, and when flakes start to swirl down on the city, they are also the only ones who know how to truly enjoy it.

The lovely illustrations remind me of Maurice Sendak's artwork. ( )

Nicely illustrated story about snow, a subject well known to the Northeastern U.S. this year. We got another 6 inches today. ( )

surprisingly simple text tells a delightfully complex story ( )
