Praise for The Snowy Day:
“Keats created a world that was so inviting that it calls us to join in. Perhaps the hustle and bustle of everyday living in 21st-century America causes us to take notice of Peter even more. A child who gets all day long to be outdoors and surrounded by snow waiting to be taken advantage of.” -The Atlantic “The Atlantic” Atlantic
