Go to sleep with your pajamas on backwards and get ready for a snow day! Build a snowperson, make a snow angel, sled down a hill…or just pretend it’s a snow day. Sip some hot chocolate and cuddle up with “I'm Going to Build a Snowman” by Jashar Awan. Because every good snow day (even the pretend ones) should always include a book!
To read more, ask your local librarian for books about snowmen.
