Book Description
"My cave is big enough for two!" a bear declares to a rabbit, inviting his small friend to share his den through the longest, coldest season. The rabbit readily accepts the bear's offer, but no sooner have the two curled up than the lively rabbit jumps up to wonder: Wouldn't it be better to be out in the crisp winter air, free to leap through the starlight and the sparkling snow? In this paperback reissue of a long out-of-print winter tale (originally titled A Starlit Somersault Downhill), Caldecott Medal winner Jerry Pinkney's rich watercolors create a cozy winter world that perfectly complements Newbery Medal winner Nancy Willard's charming poetry.

Book Description
In the heart of a quaint and picturesque town called Serendipity, where the air is perpetually crisp and the streets are adorned with the charm of a thousand winters, a story unfolds that intertwines the magic of snowfall with the serendipitous dance of destiny. When the first delicate snowflakes descend from the heavens, covering the town like a soft, white blanket, it marks the beginning of a season that transforms Serendipity into a haven of enchantment. Streets that were once familiar become avenues of wonder, and the townspeople, bundled in their cozy coats and scarves, venture out with hearts open to the possibilities that lie ahead. As the snowflakes twirl and pirouette in the chilly air, they carry with them whispers of new beginnings and the promise of unexpected connections. In this ethereal realm of snow-kissed landscapes and frosty wonders, each snowflake becomes a symbol of hope, a reminder that even in the coldest of times, warmth can be found in the most unexpected places. Amidst the glistening icicles and snow-covered rooftops, a cast of characters comes to life, each carrying their own dreams, fears, and desires. Their paths intersect like delicate snowflakes, creating a tapestry of intertwining stories that will forever leave their mark on the town of Serendipity. Journey with us through the pages of "Snowfall Serendipity," where friendships are forged in the glow of a crackling fireplace, love blooms like delicate snowdrops, and the beauty of nature's frozen artistry mirrors the profound transformations within the hearts of those who call this enchanting town home. In this tale of snowfall and serendipity, prepare to be swept away into a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and where the quiet magic of winter reveals the extraordinary threads that bind us all.

Book Description
In the tradition of his well-loved The Outermost House, Henry Beston's Northern Farm captures the elusive magic of a year on a Kennebec farm ... in truly beautiful prose ( Kirkus Reviews ). Among the blue-white shadows and graceful curves of freshly fallen snow, the first rains of spring, and the quiet green of an early summer morning, Beston brings the reader into an inescapable alliance with the natural world. He translates the philosophy of the Maine farmer into terms as applicable in Manhattan as on the Kennebec. One of the great classics of American nature writing, Northern Farm is inspiring reading and ranks as one of Beston's most memorable and lyrical works.
