Picture Books: Winter Books

 An extra edition of Picture Book Wednesday this week with Winter Books



Three friends try to play hockey but the ice is not ready yet. So they take their mind off waiting - which is hard. 
A funny story about waiting, hockey, and having fun with friends. 

* I didn't realize this book was part of a series.

There's snow on the ground. Gabo sees other children having fun and wants to join them. But he doesn't have a sled or winter clothes. Gabo meets neighbors and friends as he travels to the hill who help him.

As an adult, I found this book to be very sad. But it is realistic and it does end happily. I think there's a great discussion to be had talking about friendship and kindness and how not everyone has money for extra things. 

Groot and Rocket do not have to save the galaxy today. Instead they are having a snow day with Spiderman in New York City.

Lots of superheroes in this book. Plus snowy fun. Perfect for your superhero readers.



A boy and his grandfather walk in the woods together, looking at nature and wildlife. 

This is a sweet story about being outside in the snow and taking it all in. The Grandfather shares the names of the animals in the Ojibwemowin language.

Lily and Milo play outside in the snow. Milo's warm clothes go missing...but someone special find them in the end. 

Fun illustrations will make anyone want to play outside in the snow.
