Horn Book Review

Classroom pet hamsters Max and Mo watch the students make paper snowflakes then rush outside to play in the snow. It's too cold out for Max and Mo, so they build their own snowman with supplies they find around the room. Though the text is stilted, the vocabulary is easy to read. Delicate line illustrations add appeal. A craft project is appended. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
