The First Day of Winter

It's April, as I write this, but the weather forecast calls for snow the next two days. Maybe it's not too late for another 'winter' book. This title, by Consie Powell, is partly a counting book, but also introduces readers to animals and their activities in the winter. The illustrations include animal tracks and dioramas that show animal activity (or not) underground. Additional background notes are included in the back. The illustrations alone make this an excellent classroom resource.
