This book is super informational about what is taking place with our wildlife, plants, the weather (such as ice and snow,) what people do during winter, and even covers what hibernation is. I also love this book because it contains a fun experiment in the back that is "A salty solution to icy streets," which I think is adorable and students would be so excited to try that!

Great book for young learners to learn about the season of winter and what it involves.
