A nearly-wordless book in which a young boy, eager to reach a much-anticipated holiday party on time, listens to the sounds of the shovels, snow plow, and other equipment used to clear his way. - Baker & Taylor
In a nearly-wordless book, a young boy, eager to reach a much-anticipated holiday party on time, listens to the sounds of the shovels, snow plow, and other equipment used to clear his way. - HoughtonSweep, crunch, swoosh, scrape . . . All night long, snow falls silently, bringing forth a world blanketed in whiteâand a very noisy day.
For at dawnâs light, machine, man, and child begin to dig out: first the big highway grader and snowplow, then the smaller town plow, a fatherâs snow blower, and a boyâs shovel . . . But will the streets get cleared in time?
Spare poetry and elegant watercolor paintings cleverly bring to life this unique story of snow removal and the fun onomatopoeic sounds accompanying it.
