The Snowy Day 4th<br />

Keats, Ezra Jack<br />

FIC .004 KEA<br />

The Snowy Day, a 1963 Caldecott Medal winner, is the simple tale of a boy waking up to discover that snow has<br />

fallen during the night. Keats's illustrations, using cut-outs, watercolors, <strong>and</strong> collage, are strikingly beautiful in their<br />

understated color <strong>and</strong> composition. The tranquil story mirrors the calm presence of the paintings, <strong>and</strong> both exude<br />

the silence of a freshly snow-covered l<strong>and</strong>scape. The little boy celebrates the snow-draped city <strong>with</strong> a day of<br />

humble adventures--experimenting <strong>with</strong> footprints, knocking snow from a tree, creating snow angels, <strong>and</strong> trying to<br />

save a snowball for the next day. Awakening to a winter wonderl<strong>and</strong> is an ageless, ever-magical experience, <strong>and</strong><br />

one made nearly visceral by Keats's gentle tribute.<br />

The book is notable not only for its lovely artwork <strong>and</strong> tone, but also for its importance as a trailblazer. According<br />

to Horn Book magazine, The Snowy Day was "the very first full-color picture book to feature a small black<br />

hero"--yet another reason to add this classic to your shelves. It's as unique <strong>and</strong> special as a snowflake.<br />
