Snowfall - by Sun-Jung Park (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

A wordless wintery tale! Playful little snowflakes dance joyfully through a sleepy city in this charming, cozy picture book that's perfect for sharing on snowy days.

As the snowflakes swoop and swirl dizzily down into the warm glow of the streetlights, they discover a peaceful world of dark apartment buildings, empty parks and quiet streets with only the occasional lit window or late-night traveler to be seen.

But the happy snowflakes want to play! As they fall, they tickle a dog 's nose, skate across a frozen lake and do acrobatics on telephone wires. Finally, tired from their adventures, they curl up together. When dawn arrives, the city awakes to find itself transformed.
