The listing, The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats (1981, Paperback) has ended.

THE SNOWY DAY was the first full-color picture book to feature an African-American as its main character. One day a boy named Peter wakes up to discover that snow has fallen during the night. After breakfast, Peter dons his red snowsuit and solitarily explores his newly snowy world. He enjoys such activities as making snow angels and building a snowman, and even considers joining some bigger boys in a snowball fight, although he realizes that he's not yet old enough for such activities. After a day full of fun, Peter tucks a snowball in his pocket and returns home. Later, however, he is disappointed to discover that his snowball has melted away. That night he dreams that all the snow has melted, but in the morning he is delighted to discover that not only is his neighborhood still snow-covered, but that it's also still snowing. Once again, he ventures out into the snow for a day of fun--this time accompanied by his friend from across the hall. This peaceful, gentle story, which is illustrated with torn paper collages and watercolor paintings, is the winner of the 1963 Caldecott Medal.This book is new it came in the mail for children that I had in my daycare when I had one but they were never used the only thing that you may not like is they have a sticker on the back that had the child's name on it but this has been replaced with a sticker saying this book belongs to some of these on the inside may say Nana and Papa's Childcare but I did all the books that way but no one ever read them because I kept babies before I stopped and you put your child's name there .Any books can be combined with other books for $2.00 shipping and handling after the first one is purchased at $4.00 shipping and handling..If you don't purchase more than one you can go ahead and pay I just did this so you would get your discount for more than 1 book thanks!
