About This Book

Young Peter wakes up to find his neighborhood blanketed in snow and spends the day exploring — making tracks, smacking snow off a tree, and trying to save a snowball in his pocket. This Caldecott Medal winner was groundbreaking as one of the first mainstream picture books to feature an African American protagonist.
