Breathtaking photography and fascinating facts about snow crystals
“will instill appreciation for these tiny, cool objects” in both
children and adults (The Washington Post). How do snow crystals form?
What shapes can they take? Is it true that there are no two snow
crystals alike? These questions and more are answered in this visually
stunning exploration of the science of snow. Perfect for reading on
winter days, the book features photos of real snow crystals in all
their beautiful diversity. Snowflake-catching instructions are also
included! “Settle down in a comfy chair. . . . By the end,
you’ll be hoping there’s a day when you can follow the careful
directions for catching and viewing snow crystals.” —Chicago
Tribune “The clear and direct narrative takes readers into the
clouds to explain snow-crystal formation...and then zooms in on the
actual crystals. Sure to get young scientists outside in the cold.”
—Kirkus Reviews “Nature photographer Cassino’s gallery of snow
crystals is [a] riveting exhibition.” —Bulletin of the Center for
Children’s Books (starred review)
