About this ebook
Look out. Now look up. From the sky one flake falls, then another. And just like that—it's snowing.
In this beautiful book from debut creator Bomi Park, a young girl wakes up to the year's first snowy day. From her initial glimpse out the window to her poignant adventures—rolling a snowman, making snow angels—the girl's quiet quests are ones all young readers will recognize. Simple, muted text and exquisite, evocative art conjure the excitement of a day spent exploring the wonder of snow—and the magic that, sometimes literally, such a day brings. As subtly joyful as a snow day itself, this book will find its home in the hearts of young adventurers everywhere.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Soft illustrations in black and white with pops of red and light skin tones create a quiet and hypnotic depiction of a young child's first snow. The child dons snow gear to creep outside and makes a snowball, rolling it past buildings and animals to a clearing where many other children are also building their snowmen. Gentle and sweet.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5calm, cool, quiet first snow story
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Pretty, quiet, nicely paced. Might work for very little kids.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Awakened by the pitter patter of snow striking her window, a young child heads out into the nighttime world in this lovely picture-book from South Korea, enjoying the first snow of the season. Rolling a snowball in the confines of her yard, the girl eventually rolls through the nearby woods, and into a field, where countless other children have come as well, rolling their own balls. It is a magical time, as the children build their snowmen...Originally published in 2012 as 첫눈, and then translated into English in 2016, First Snow is author/illustrator Bomi Park's debut picture-book. Although not wordless, it is textually sparse, allowing the beautiful illustrations to tell most of the story. Mostly black and white and shades of gray, with some limited color accents - the girl's red scarf, and the red hats and scarves of the other children - the artwork here skillfully captures the wonder of the nighttime vista, and the enchantment of the first snowfall of the season. I loved the overall aesthetic of the book, with its quiet sense of wonder, and I appreciated some of the little details as well, particularly the little puppy that follows the girl on her nighttime adventure. Recommended to picture-book readers looking for winter-time picture-books for younger children, perhaps six years and under.
