Beautiful illustrations! Read this to a group of kids for a winter craft program and it was a hit.

I love illustrated books for children. It mentions animals that live over and under the snow. A cute book to read.

This is the second book I have read in the "Over and Under" series and I have quickly become a fan of these books. The first line draws the reader in-- “Over the snow I glide. Into woods, frosted fresh and white. Over the snow, a flash of fur – a red squirrel disappears down a crack. “Where did he go?” 'Under the Snow,' Dad says". This book goes to describe the world that lies beyond the white, fluffy snow. This book explores the tunnels and caves beyond our view, where animals live in warmth during the winter. The language is descriptive of the beauty found in nature, with mesmerizing adjectives and a poetic rhythm. I will definitely be purchasing this series for my classroom.

A cozy non-fiction book, Over and Under the Snow follows a child as she skis through the woods on an afternoon. All kinds of creatures are there, even if she can't see them. Their tunnels and tracks are still there if she knows what to look for!
I particularly liked the straightforward yet poetic style of this book. I learned a few things myself, and I'd definitely pick this one for story time before going on a hike with my students in the winter.
