""It's not an adventure if you know everything before it happens!"" Sugarwing Snowflake is making her first flight down to the snowy pines of earth, uncertain what waits for her on the ground below. Luckily lots of other snowflakes are traveling with her, and Sugarwing is relieved that she is not alone as she whirls with the wind through the clouds. From the branches where she finds her perch, Sugarwing can hardly believe her eyes: a man made of snowflakes has drawn all the creatures of the forest out from the woods. The flickering stars and the magic of a midnight moon reveal the greatest surprise of all. A beautifully illustrated tribute to the wonder of the seasons, "Sugarwing Snowflake's Great Adventure" will be a family favorite for many winters to come. ***** An engaging tale about a snowflake who is making her first trip to earth. Scared and uncertain of what lies before her, she learns to enjoy her amazing adventure, gaining self-confidence and a sense of purpose while she witnesses the surprises of winter and the magic of love. A man made of snowflakes, the forest animals, and the magic of a midnight moon reveal the greatest surprise of all. Young children will identify with Sugarwing. Their young lives are a series of adventures, sometimes scary, sometimes exciting, many times both. As a fellow snowflake tells her, "it's not an adventure if you know everything before it happens." Learn along with Sugarwing that she will "repeat her adventure endlessly, so long as Father Sun warms the earth, sets the seasons, and children need snowflakes to build snowmen."
