November 2017 - this makes a great easy reader (truly easy, fun pictures, decent story) but falls a little flat as a read aloud.

Snowy and warm, this Andy & Sandy book is a wonderfully illustrated beginning reader!

This is a fun book to introduce ideas for playing in the snow, but I think it's a fundamental flaw of the story that I don't know which character is Andy and which is Sandy...

Neo is back, reading again and seeing what his little friends have been doing. Andy and Sandy are enjoying the winter weather and their first time in the snow. So many possibilities: snowballs, snowmen, angels, and sledding. Both of them enjoy all these activities, but when the snow gets too wet and cold, they have a plan for that as well. Neo loves the snow and playing in it, though he echoes that it can be wet and cold. Nothing that a little hot chocolate (hold the dry marshmallows, please) cannot solve!
