Brief Summary/Book Usage: Peter wakes up and sees the streets of the city covered with snow. He gets dressed to go outside and enjoy the snow. He plays all day in the snow and then comes in to take a bath. He becomes sad because he is afraid the snow is going to go away. He goes to bed and wakes up the next morning to see that it is snowing again. I would use this book in my future classroom during the winter time to read aloud to my students during story time.
