Winter Is Coming
Winter Is Coming: with audio recording | Tony Johnston
4 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Witness the changing of a season through a watchful childs eyes in this story of nature and discovery from award-winning author Tony Johnston and New York Times Best Illustrated artist Jim La Marche. Day after day, a girl goes to her favorite place in the woods and quietly watches from her tree house as the chipmunks, the doe, the rabbits prepare for the winter. As the temperature drops, sunset comes earlier and a new season begins. Silently she observes the world around her as it reveals its secrets. It takes time and patience to see the changes as, slowly but surely, winter comes.

Another 25 #HolidayReads. My favorite was the tagged book. Such a sweet story. I really loved all the Kwanzaa reads as well because I am learning so much about this wonderful holiday celebration.

#ReadingResolutions Day 10: Gorgeous #EndPapers or #EndPages in this picturebook. Here, the reader is introduced to a young, introspective girl who experiences the outdoors, observing the natural world around her, sniffing the air for the scent of winter, and recording what she sees in a notebook she brings everywhere with her.

I-read-and-eat So pretty! ❄ I love it when it's cold. 7y
CocoReads We're supposed to get some snow today but I don't think it'll stick--maybe later this week we'll get accumulation. I'm pretty sure I saw a flake or two when we got home from the bar last night, but that could have been the alcohol combined with wishful thinking! 7y
Laura317 They are saying we could have flurries Monday & Tuesday. The kids are hoping for enough to close school. 7y
Cailey_Mac Even though we've already had a winter storm a week ago, I'm still not ready 🙈☃️ 7y
GoldenGirl And here I am in Texas getting excited that it's 48 today! Lol 7y
Aseleener Pretty pic! We're getting 2-4" of snow later today. First of the season. I'm so not ready! I'm a wuss; I can't walk outside if it's below 50 F. Off to the gym for me! 7y
