March came in like a lamb around here today. No major snowstorms, ice, sleet or rain. That’s too bad. Now I’m not looking forward to the end of March. I would have enjoyed watching a few flakes fly today because I’m reviewing a picture book called A Very Special Snowflake
Jeff and Veronica and their new puppy named Snowflake venture outside to play during a snowstorm. Snowflake the puppy jumps into a snowbank and goes missing. Jeff and Veronica search everywhere in their neighborhood, asking everyone they encounter if they’ve seen Snowflake. No one understands that the children are inquiring after their puppy named Snowflake, not the falling snow.
The story, A Very Special Snowflake
